Hi!
This is my first time to post to this list, so I'll make a short 
introduction... My name is Jeff Nelson; I've been using Linux for about 3 
years and am an English as a Foreign/Second Language educator, currently 
working in the United Arab Emirates but formerly of Washington State 
University.  I advocate Linux every chance I get!  

Someone's already mentioned it, but I'd like to put in my two bits for 
KPresenter.  I used it for two presentations at the TESOL convention, and 
people commented on how professional the slide shows looked.  Some caveats 
are that it does still occasionally crash and do weird things, so you should 
make a backup of your presentation files.  Also, fonts aren't quite as smooth 
as they should be, but I think all in all it's quite good and easy to use.  
Also, it converts to HTML very nicely.  

You can see (or download & use) my presentation _Using Linux in TESL_ along 
with all the notes and handout at:

Best regards,

Jeff Nelson
