Powerpoint is great for assisting presentations, and like other posters in the thread have said, it's for assistance, and not the main source of information. Think pictures and very concise bullet points. I know the consulting industry likes to abuse powerpoint by making 200+ slide decks that are clearly not meant to be presented but more used as printouts/deliverables. I question that PPT is the best format for that but nobody has come up with anything better that is as widely adopted.
