Although I would not recommend it for presentations or for things like CVs where you need more control minute control over the position and style.

I don't want go drag the thread off topic, but I use LaTeX for pretty much everything: presentations, CVs, posters ... everything. Never had any problems with control - there's a package out there for pretty much everything these days!

I use the latex moderncv package to do my cover letters and cv's. Nice and easy to use while still being flexible and with a really high quality output.

Heres an example of its output: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4025249/stef...tefanie_v3.pdf
