Yeah, there's a view on Windows (I think) where the presenter gets the
"index", but the projector just gets the current slide. That's really
helpful in big formal presenting situations, but unfortunately a lot of
people need to run Powerpoint straight off a laptop, which looks messy.
(Which isn't to say people don't do it, but it breaks the flow of the
presentation a little.)
