Best way to show/explain keynote to a busy switcher

Posted:
in General Discussion edited January 2014
A friend of mine is a very busy marketing professional who runs his own buisness, a potential switcher. Keynote looks like a great program and combined with the new 12" PB i think i can finnaly explain to him why his son and I both use macs.



What would be the best way to go about doing this?

He really only uses Powerpoint and AOL (and not very well I should add)... I really think that Steve's demo of keynote would be a good thing to show...



what else? How would i show just that part of the keynote?

    they dont have broadband... I should burn a CD of a bunch of stuff and give it to him



    Apple should pull an aol and put demos of OS X (for windows and OS 9) on CDs and give them away at Comp USA and the like



    put demonstrations of keynote, other apps, and the hardware and compare them to the equivalents on windows (os 9)

    Not a bad idea.

    Keynote is nice and all but it's not a replacement for Powerpoint. Maybe it will be someday. It says 1.0 but it seems beta feature wise.

    I am planning on showing him keynote as an extension to ppnt also as an example of what can be made for the mac...
