I found a way to install both versions -- install PPV 2007 (this will
delete the 2003 version if it is installed) and then install the PPV
2003 version.

A clarification on the Power Point Viewer 2007 Pool Ball Bug: PPV 2007
seems to randomly change ordinary small round bullets (from 2003
presentations) into oversize #10 pool ball bullets. Some pages with
multiple bullets are unaffected, some pages have some bullets changed,
other pages have all bullets changed. Fun for presentations intended to
be humorous, otherwise not.
