PowerPoint makes you dumb

It is long time belief of me: PowerPoint makes you dumb. It is not a mistake of the PowerPoint programmers, but the way of presentation they encouraged. That’s why I love the old way of presentation: using overhead projectors and transparencies.

The below is an article from the Presentation Zen, titled Gates, jobs, & the Zen aesthetic, which compares how Steve Jobs of Apple Computer and Bill Gates of Microsoft do presentation. Definitely, Jobs’ is clean and tidy, and I favors this style.
