This program is almost universally used on both platforms. But presentations made on PCs, for example, often display improperly (e.g., graphic elements jumbled up) on Macs, and presumably vice versa. I have seen this problem frequently at conferences. Why would Microsoft allow this to happen? One of the most exasperating incompatibilities between Macs and PCs concerns Microsoft Powerpoint.

I was supprised that Walt did not mention Boot Camp or Parallels. I find these basically make the mixing of the two platforms seamless. This is especially true if you add to the mix Paragon's NTFS for Mac® OS X 7.0. This lets the Mac read and write to NTFS partitions and they have a PC browser that lets the PC do the same. I have used their stuff for 3 years and am impressed! I have a mixed PC/Mac environment.
