Embed a PowerPoint presentation into HTML

Is it possible to embed a PowerPoint presentation (.ppt) into a webpage (.xhtml)?

This will be used on a local intranet where there is a mix of Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Explorer 7 only, so no need to consider other browsers.


I've given up... I guess Flash is the way forward.

Google Docs can serve up PowerPoint (and PDF) documents in it's document viewer. You don't have to sign up for Google Docs, just upload it to your website, and call it from your page:
