I have seen some pretty amusing PP presentations. Like once one
presentation using a fancy sliding text from the right border of
the screen to the midle. But as it was supposed to stop in the
midle of the screen, instead it just vanished.

Another time PP would crash one third into the presentation, the
computer used was rebooted, and PP started over again. This time
PP crashed again at the same point in the presentation. Finally
she pulled out some printed transparancies telling us, that she
was used to this.
