I don't have to select the whole cell in order to get the "Copy As...
Metafile" option in Mathematica 7. I do have to go all the way to the
menu bar to get the option, but it's available if I just click on the
plot to select it without selecting the whole cell.

These look fine upon pasting into PowerPoint 2003 as a "Picture
(Enhanced Metafile)", so the problem may be on the PowerPoint 2007 end
of things.

Sorry I can't be more helpful,
