Open Office Impress is basically a free version of Microsoft PowerPoint.
PowerPoint files can be viewed on a Mac with Microsoft's PowerPoint, Apple's Keynote, Open Office and several PowerPoint viewers.
It is the equivalent of Microsoft's 'Powerpoint' program.
Powerpoint is a single program - OpenOffice is a suite of programs !
Generally OpenOffice compares very well. The major issues I have with OO is with "Presenter" (the PowerPoint like module) The animations are not as good or easy to use as in MS PowerPoint. I find the Spreadsheet and the Word processor very good indeed.

Yes, but a special "Compatibility Pack" is needed. The Compatibility Pack works with Office 2000, XP and 2003.
PowerPoint is a paid-for program. You cannot download PowerPoint legally (other than some Microsoft student programs) You could try Google Docs, a free online app by Google that can open PowerPoint files, or Open Office, which includes Word and Excel clones for free.
The .pps extension is a 'Powerpoint' type slide display. You will need Powerpoint or its equivalent to play it. If you do not have Microsoft Powerpoint then Open Office offers a free alternative to create and display such files.
No, you need the program installed in order to use it.
