Converting a powerpoint to another format

Hi, I know there have been other threads on this, but I have a couple questions that I didn’t see on the other threads.

I know there are programs that convert a powerpoint to either Flash or video, but the one I downloaded didn’t work properly. And on top of that, it had a huge ugly watermark right in the middle of the screen.

Does anyone have any advice on how I can convert a powerpoint to either video or flv, but without buying an expensive program that neither my client or I can afford?

Converting it to flash manually seems like it’ll be complicated and time consuming, so I don’t think I can do it (he wants this done soon).

Or is there anyone out there I can pay to manually convert this to video or flv? (I don’t have much to pay, but I just want to get this done.)

thanks so much!
