[nabs-l] giving PowerPoint presentations

I go old school here: I have my slide contents/points in hard-copy Braille
and in the past have had a volunteer forward the slides for me. I have also
used a Braille display with a laptop, but it was a USB one with an unstable
connecting cable, so I tend to stick to Braille paper.

I either just use the traditional way of advancing slides using the keyboard
or sometimes use a clicker. As I advance slides, JAWS usually reads the
slide title which helps me figure out what slide I'm on.
