Hi

I have just got a new MacBook Pro and while playing with the remote control
wondered if it would allow me to control my MacBook when I am doing a
Powerpoint presentation.

Anyone know if this is possible?

Robin

Take a look at these:

Sofa Control: http://caseapps.com/sofacontrol.html

Remote Buddy: http://www.iospirit.com

They both extend the capabilities of the remote to many applications,
including PowerPoint.
