I gave all my classes a few years ago using nothing but tpp. The students didn't
seem to mind -- at least, any more than they minded taking the classes in the
first place. It is simple, effective, does 90% of what you need if you don't 
actually *need* to present graphical information (charts or images or whatever),
and absurdly simple to learn/use. I had it on an old pentium-m laptop with only
console apps.
