Realistically speaking a presentation shouldn't have a lot of content on the slides. A presentation should accentuate what you're talking about by listing the major talking points. By placing entire paragraphs on a slide, or crowding one slide with too much information, you're dooming your audience to boredom by signaling their brains to turn off. Nobody wants to read that much, especially while someone is on 'the stage' speaking. Steve Jobs' presentations always go over well because he knows how to make a good presentation. Little visual content, only there to accentuate what he is going to say. He keeps the flow steady, and pauses at the right time, like a radio announcer would, or a good comedian. Not to mention, he almost always has something good to say, and somehting up his sleeve.
