Two caveats: I’m still delving into MORE, and have to admit that I am not a great fan of public computer-based presentations. If you’re in a room with real people, why not leave on the lights and look them in the eye?
But from what I’ve seen, MORE translates the hierarchical arrangement of topics into a dynamically updated presentation. Power Point is just a serial slide show—the hierarchy has to be independently generated.
To put it another way, the difference between MORE and Power Point is the difference between editing and elaborating an outline (with some screen display options), versus stringing together a bunch of separately formatted screens.
