While David's comment is probably quite correct, it's hardly very
helpful when faced with such a document which is only available to
me in (so-called) HTML.  As I didn't have access to the original
.ppt file, I couldn't use another suggestion which I received
privately to use a .ppt to HTML convertor (or use something like
Openoffice).

So to rephrase the question to be pedantically accurate, what is there
available for NetBSD (or Linux, if I must) which will render the
so-called HTML produced by powerpoint so it looks like it would in
IE (or at least so that all the text is visible)?  Does IE run properly
under Wine on NetBSD 1.6?
