Is it acceptable to create a presentation (to pitch your product) with LaTeX + beamer? Here are the pros/cons as I seem them:<p>Pros:
- PDF files can be opened on any platform
- If you only use vector based graphics in your presentation it tends to look cleaner
- You have more control over how to layout your presentation<p>Cons:
- You have more control over how to layout your presentation... wasting time?
- Not immediately obvious that what you are sending is a presentation?
- Everyone expects powerpoint?<p>What do you guys think?

A much better paradigm for presentations as they are non-sequential (or at least it doesn't have to be sequential).<p>It's flash based, so it is highly likely that anybody can view it, but it is probably best in the environment where you are controlling the presentation.
