The slides mostly had code on, and some occasional light hearted stuff (but not distracting).
Without slides this would have been too fiddly for some presenters, e.g. messing around with a text editor or worse just explaining code with no visual.
However rarely was there a slide where the talker just read off it. I think there was 1 slide I witnessed where that happened.
Everyone used PowerPoint or similar.

So +1 for PowerPoint if used correctly.
