I have a power point that is huge (50+ MB) is there any way to shrink the file size to be more friendly to my 1GB of storage?

If you have images in the PPT, then double click on one of them, go to the Picture tab and then click compress. A dialog box will pop up and ask if you want to compress that 1 pic or all in the document. Choose all and then choose Print. Apply it and then save as a different document name. Check the file size then. If it's still too large, go through the same process, but choose Web/Screen.

This usually doesn't change the quality of the images too much, but I would go through it just to make sure.
