NeoImpress

From NeoWiki

NeoImpress is the presentation component of NeoOffice. Impress allows you to create presentations that include graphics, animation, transition effects, and more. Impress can read Microsoft PowerPoint presentations. Impress does not currently include support for video elements, and music elements play only during the slide to which they are attached.

The wiki includes a NeoOffice Feature Comparison with Microsoft Word and OpenOffice.org and a list of supported file formats for NeoOffice Impress and the other components of NeoOffice.
