There are times when using powerpoint that I would like to write or draw
things to expand on what I am talking about. Is there any software that
would allow me to use a graphics tablet and project a whiteboard so that I
could switch between powerpoint and the graphics tablet? Is there anyway to
do them both at the same time via a split screen that way I could keep
projecting the powerpoint slide and write down information in real-time.
Thanks. Tom

You could use a Tablet PC and write/annotate over the live presentation
itself - you could also choose to save all such annotations.

You could also insert a blank white slide in your presentation and use that
as a workaround for a whiteboard.

You don't actually need a tablet PC. You can use a mouse if you have to, but a
graphics pen and tablet like one from Wacom will do from any system.
