Try one of these "Sabrent PC to TV Converter Box" it will work, there are very many details in a project like you described in your question. But generally the Sabrent box will get it done. Cant answer whether just any laptop can do it. Some can and some cant. The best way to do it is with a TV that has a VGA Port. The presentation will look as good as it does on the PC, only somewhat larger, of course.

Computer Yes (it uses a VGA connection). Very good resolution for PowerPoints.No USB connection.

You can use the Mediabridge VGA to component video cable. This cable allows you to use the component input,on the Toshiba, as a computer monitor. Even though their isnt a dedicated PC input on the TV using this type of cable gets around that.

the box uses a VGA Output, not sure if you can you a laptop, as its an output not an input, you might need a monitor for a VGA input

yes its compatible with a laptop. but you will have to buy a vga to av converter, which cost me about 30 pounds; which is about 45 dollars. on the other hand i will advise you not to use it for presentation because the picture quality is to poor it makes it nearly impossible to read a power point off it. spend a little more and get something better.

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.

If just for output (to a projector or screen sharing to a monitor) I'd probably get an adapter similar to the following:

If you are mirroring the laptop you will need to use the laptop keyboard or 3rd party remote connected to the laptop because the projector is only mirroring your display. IF you have converted your presentation into JPG to be played from a USB Memory stick or Micro SD storage then you can use the remote that is included with the projector to navigate your presentation.

It doesn't work with the computer. You put in the A/V cables from the TV to the converter, then hook up the Output A/V cables from your video game/VCR/DVD whatever to the VuPoint. Hit record, and what ever is on screen of the TV is recorded onto a SD card in the converter. You can then take the SD card out of the converter and plug it into your computer and BAM. You have your video. So, it doesn't so much CONVERT anything, just records what's on the TV.I suppose that was more of an answer than you wanted.

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

Only in conjunction with your lapotop by mirroring the desktop. On it's own the P300 only supports the following media formats: MP4 / MP3 / WMA / OGG / WAV / AVI / BMP / JPG / GIF / TXT. To play a PowerPoint presentation from a USB stick you would need to first save the presentation as a series of JPGs, use the "Save As" function in PowerPoint to do this.

Yeah, but you need to buy a thing. I have an old Pinnacle PCTV tuner (USB stick) that works great. One end plugs into my cable and the other plugs into the computer. I would recommend you search for a more modern USB TV Tuner but feel pretty confident you could make it work.

I don't think this would be the best product for that purpose, I would imagine the best solution would be to simply run some video cable from the laptop to just another screen instead of another pc if at all possible. Best of luck on your search.
