Running Power Point On Xbox

I was interested in using Power point on my xbox is this possible or should I just try to get xbmc to work in a similar way ie slide show.

there's probably an open-source powerpoint clone for linux, but unless someone ported the code to an xbox you'd have to go that route

Not with CE.  There is a powerpoint viewer on the CE bundle, but i'm not sure how it works (I don't have a mouse attatched).  You could try OpenOffice for Linux, or using an app to export PP presentations as videos to be watched on XBMC.
