Bad PowerPoint is not the fault of the presentation tool.It is the fault of the presenter and/or designer.
In my professional endeavors as an instructional designer, I always strive to provide clients with something creative and fresh (yet practical), especially when it comes to PowerPoint! Sadly, most prefer that I remove the fun part (that keeps things interesting), in favor of straight, oftentimes exhaustive screen text.
But never fear. There is help for lousy PowerPoint design!
These are my presentation "bibles," if you will:

Slide:ology: The Art and Science of
Creating Great Presentations

Do your audience the hugest favor ever and read these books! And if you are too busy/lazy to do that, hire me.
