Great tutorial, indeed. The PPT file size is likely so large because of the images. If you reduce the size of the images, you can get the PPT file size pretty small.

You can do this within Powerpoint via several means, the most effective of which are lowering the resolution/compression.

In my 2007 version, all I do is click an image, and "Compress Pictures" appears upper left. You can do it to all the images at once -- would take 30 seconds. Leave the "Apply to selected pictures only" box unchecked, click options, and choose resolution. Try it at the 150 dpi, save the file, exit PP, and see how big the file is. If satisfactory, go with that; otherwise, try 96 dpi.

PP 2010 is probably similar.
