You might like to drop Microsoft a note and ask them. I've just started to
use PowerPoint 2.0 for the Mac and it's pretty slick. Microsoft have a
policy of making all things available on both environments (Windows/PM and
Macintosh), so I would think that they are at least considering it.
I don't know of anything on the PC that is currently equivelant.
