I noted Tricia Aanderud's recent post on BI Notes with a wry smile: Can SAS Visual Analytics Replace PowerPoint for a Small Business? The question seems incredulous, yet when I read Tricia's article in full, I could see sense in the train of thought that Tricia and some of her clients were propounding.
If you spend a lot of time preparing slide decks full of charts, read Tricia's article and see if you might support her argument too. It's certainly thought-provoking, and amply demonstrates many benefits of Visual Analytics.
