Micro$oft PowerPoint can do this, all by itself. You need networked
machines, but check it out. I've done it with Office 97 on NT workstations,
but I bet the Office 98 for Macintosh would work just as well. Look for
"presentation conference", on the tools menu, I think....

Happy New Year to everyone on PACS-L!
We are in the market to buy software for controlling instructional
presentations. I've read a bit about LANSchool, for example. I wonder if
any of you have comments about LANSchool, or know of similar software
packages? What we need is something that will broadcast the output from
one computer to many others, and allow us to turn this control on and
off at will, so that the audience can experiment with searches.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Julie
