In an interview at http://www.sjmercury.com/business/sun0126.htm
Scott McNealy of Sun explains corporate policy regarding PowerPoint:

> We had 12.9 gigabytes of (Microsoft) PowerPoint slides on our network.
> And I thought, ``What a huge waste of corporate productivity.''
> So we banned it. And we've had three unbelievable record-breaking
> fiscal quarters since we banned PowerPoint. Now, I would argue that
> every company in the world, if they would just ban PowerPoint, would
> see their earnings skyrocket. Employees would stand around going,
> ``What do I do? Guess I've got to go to work.''
