iMeowbot macrumors G3 Aug 8, 2006 #2 There is this: MS PP '98 viewer. It's an ancient Classic app, so forget it on Macintel. Still usable on PPC, if you don't mind using Classic. iWork's Keynote can read 'em on OS X, not free but it's a lot cheaper than MS Office. You could also try OpenOffice/NeoOffice, compatibility is so-so.
