“The last few years I’ve spent more time than I care to think
about creating slides using Impress and other presentation
software. While Impress has its proponents and it’s a great
replacement for people who’ve gotten used to using Microsoft’s

and really sort of intrusive. I’m glad it exists for folks who want
a PowerPoint alternative, but I’ve wanted something much
simpler.”
