NOt directly from the projector, but from a laptop connected to the projector.

If you mean power point slides? Yes, you can connect it to any computer, lab top or even tablet (with the right connecting wire attatchment).

Yes. Just dl the the file from the windows pc (via the USB), then plug the FlashDrive into the apple pc (via the USB), and upload the file. Easy-peasy.

Offcourse yes u can.. You can directly play any files directly from pen drive without copying those to your mobile

You would have to buy Office for Mac to use Powerpoint. You can buy a student version of the software for around $100 which will include Word and Excel.

1 - You shouldn't have any trouble converting between Microsoft and OpenOffice file formats. Please note though, some people imbed videos in their PPT files and Linux has to jump through a few hoops before it will play well with Apple's and Microsoft's proprietary video formats. Beyond that, you should have zero problems here.2 - The Eee does indeed have a VGA port and you ought to be able to hook up to any projector you like.3 - I'm not sure about this, but it may be as simple as using a different keystroke in Impress than the one you would use in PowerPoint.

Yes it most definitely can be used for power point presentations. That's why I got one. Works great.

Yes, there is a USB port on the unit, however I was not able to get the unit to recognize the flash drive was present. I ended up using a memory card. I had also hoped to have two or three slideshows on the flash drive and be able to show whichever one I selected. No go! It seems to only see one slideshow and play only that one. Directly connecting a USB cable from my computer to the Digital Frame didn't work either. I have a lot of experience in such things, but I felt like an idiot trying different things to accomplish a simple task.

Any idea if it will work for non-Powerpoint? Like Keynote or NeoOffice slideshows?

The manual I have states you can hook up a USB printer or speaker to the USB port. Does not state anything about a harddrive or flashdrive, sorry. They call it a ReadyShare Printer and music port. To use it, you must download the NETGEAR USB Control Center Utility from netgear's home page.

Not unless you have IOMEGA zip disks you need to access. As others have said, it's old technology. You probably want a flash drive that is compatible with current computers.

Yes. I was able to present a ppt presentation via a jump drive. However, most of my presentations were via a laptop.

If you install debian PPC and use that as your OS you can because flash can be installed in it. SEE, http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/108041/how-to-add-flash-support-on-a-powerpc-debian

Sorry don't use it that way. I use it with my laptop for powerpoint lectures.

Yes you can. I have mine set up with the 32 bit Microsoft 7 operating system, and I did just recently borrow a USB external CD drive, and successfully installed Mircosoft Office 2003 small business edition (Word Excel Powerpoint Outlook). Not a problem at all. Just be sure, for convenience sake, whatever you install doesn't require a CD to be present whenever whatever program is running, though very few programs are like that. I ran into one that was an automobile service manual for a 1999 model car. The Office 2003 I installed does not need the cd to run.

I've only tested the USB port on it once, so I may be wrong, but I'm fairly sure you can only do a photo-slide show using a usb drive. Any video content has to come from an actual player of some sort (computer, DVD plater etc.). But like I said, I've only tried that once, so anyone else please correct me if I'm wrong :)

Actually, the pen drive would not work. It would have to be an MP3 player with the ability to play the files on it's own. Any mp3 player would do though. And they are pretty cheap these days.Good luck.
