I think he wanted something that /wasn't/ a resource hog :-)

Seriously, if you have KDE installed (which you probably don't if you 
are worried about system resources) there is KPresenter.  The HTML 
suggestion is a very valid one though, and there is a port for 
converting PowerPoint to html in /usr/ports/textproc/xlhtml  but I've 
never tried it.

There are a few in the 'misc' ports.  Look for MagicPoint or Pointless.  
I think Pointless uses OpenGL, so you might not want that one either.  
There is another in /usr/ports/multimedia/slideshow that is supposedly 
very powerful.  I have only glanced at it.
