My personal preference is to use HTML presentation on a browser. Totally platform independent.
Opera 5 supports full screen (F11 toggle), and it is *actually* the "full" screen with no browser borders, (unlike IE which still has the browser frame around). This is true for both the Linux and Win-9x versions. All you need is a .gif "next" and "previous" link on each individual html "slide". The only problem that I face, is that, I need to carry my Opera-5 CD to all venues, and uninstall it on completion of the presentation. Opera-5 is not that common and is not available on most systems.
