As an aside, I sometimes have to play UX designer when there is no one qualified available, and I've used every wireframing tool in the market trying to find something that allows me to create UIs as quickly as I can think. A few weeks ago I gave up and in frustration I put together a quick powerpoint so the product team could work on it themselves. It turns out PP is exactly what I was looking for! I found that all the other tools required a lot of setup and configuration that slowed me down, and powerpoint is so simple that you can just start plopping squares down on the page and put a few links in-between slides. I think the real gain for me is that most products I work on end up being data grid heavy, and creating tables in balsalmiq/whatever is always a nightmare.
