To the OP are you trying to make presentations more flashy/pretty or do you just not want to buy Office? I still think PowerPoint is the best at what it does and if you really know how to use it and avoid the templates they give you, it is surprisingly powerful.
Another option, although rather plain (yet free), is Google Docs.
Not that I want to make them "flashy/pretty", just finished school, spent the last 4 years doing nothing but powerpoints and was looking for something a little less boring and more effective.
