Is this compatible with a laptop? I need something to present powerpoints on for training.

It is compatible, but I found that text displays on the projection screen very blurry.

No. I don't believe it will accept PowerPoint. You probably would need to convert to a compatible video format.

Being an HDMI cable, you have to have HDMI ports on both the laptop and TV that you want to use for the presentations. If you do, this cable will work great. It's a quality product and highly recommended!

Yes - it works fine with both. I have only tested the presenter features with PowerPoint (2010 and 2013). But as a mouse it works the same as any other mouse.

I don't think so. Look in your owners guide. This will give you some info about this subject . You can hook up your laptop with an HDMI, and the Verbatim will work through that.

This is just a Screen with a Battery in it (monitor). To do a presentation you have to hook the monitor up to a Smartphone or Laptop and use something like this http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-910-001354-Wireless-Presenter-R400/dp/B002GHBUTK/ref=sr_1_2 to make the outside device advance the slides.

Hi, I posted a video on youtube showing my powerpoint. Also did other reviews on MSI wind such as bluetooth and other accessories. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HG0iXJnX4JE

Yes, sort of. You have to save the PowerPoint as a picture file, and you can click through that way. The only challenge is you lose animations and transitions, so it works best with simplified presentations.

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.

Yes. The Toshiba Excite CAN open powerpoint slides. It comes with an application called "Quick Office" (Lite version) which can be used to view ppt presentations.

Yes. This doc camera will work well to record a lesson, capturing visual and audio. You do need a laptop or computer to hook it up to as it does not work as a "stand alone" doc camera.

YES!!! I was surprised to see that it worked with my smart notebook slideshows...like a charm. I have the most recent version of smart notebook with my smart board. I absolutely LOVE this device for teaching!!!

Did work very well, but it works on keynote mode mouse not in mode presentation, so for power point it doesn't work so well, just for get forward the slide.I Hope give you some idea.

Hey Pokey,Yes, you need a computer, on which you load the pretty simple IPEVO software and you run it thru any kind of standard LCD projector that you might use for your powerpoints or other images. Many schools have placed these in classrooms so teachers can project materials, and most of us have laptops -- so in that situation, this little device is an amazing value. It replaces that overhead because you can project anything without making them in to slides. Its just a little video camera is all.

The equipment is not meant for a laptop, only a keyboard and monitor set up. I use my laptop on a separate docking station and have it all hooked up (by my wonderful IT department!)
