Couple of different potential fixes here...

1) No fix for your RHN subscription problem.. other than getting yourself a 
real entitlement for RHEL3 so that you can use up2date to install whatever 
packages you need.

2) If I were you, I would either install CentOS5 or Ubuntu.. then you can yum 
install or apt-get install whatever you need.. no license required.

3) If you don't have time to do a reinstall.. then just go out to the 
OpenOffice.org web site and install from tarball.

4) After getting OOffice installed, then you can either export your slides to 
800x600 web format (bunch of scaled PNG graphics), or safe out to a flash 
(swf) file and also view it in a web browser at a friendly resolution.
