...for us presenters are ZoomIT from the Sys Internals Team at Microsoft.

It's free, available for download and the little gadget every presenter need.
It has three features:
-
Gives you the possibility to zoom in on the screen to show important areas during demos.
-
Gives you the possibility to draw on the screen to mark out important areas during demos.
-
Gives you a break timer, helping the attendees to see when you start again.
When ZoomIt is running you just use the Ctrl-key plus the above number-key to activate chosen feature. In zoom-mode you can move and freeze the zoomed area with your mouse. In draw-mode you can draw free lines, blocks and arrows, with key-combos, on the screen.
