two ways to perhaps view powerpoint through a linux install

1. use crossover office and install powerpoint
2. use openoffice.org impress, and import the presentation,  may be the 
solution using all open source software.

you could perhaps download the opencd, as this has openoffice.org on it, 
and print some lables off, and perhaps give these away to anyone who 
asks where to get the openoffice from.
