Does it require a laptop for PPT's? Or is a USB with PPT enough?

As usual, Amazon has lumped all models under one and so my review is showing up under a model which I did not purchase - so sorry, I can't answer your question.

To the best of my knowledge, yes, you need a computer. The only thing I see that it will display directly off a USB drive is pictures. And frankly, the way it displays pictures in that mode is not very useful.

Computer requirements are minimal. You'll need USB 2.0 or better, and drivers for your system found at http://usglobalsat.com/s-172-bu-353-s4-support.aspxI'm using mine with Windows 8.1 running Nobeltec VNS 11. No problems.

Yes, only needs a USB port. Keep in mind this sits behind your lap top & so takes up some extra space back there.

I'm not sure I understand the question...but you'll need the VGA connection for video and the USB connection for Keyboard and mouse connectivity, should you choose to use it. It will function without the USB being plugged in, if that's your concern. Hope that helps...

I use a laptop and a projector and a smartboard. I am very happy with it. You do not need a smartboard, any screen or even wall will work.

No, you wil need a windows tablet for that. I recommend either the Asus t100 or the dell venue pro 8 - both come with it free. I used to have a surface but the price just isn't worth it. Hope that helps.

The previous commentor is correct. This laptop is limited ... but it is a fun little tool. Hope you choose to get it and pursue adapter options.

It does require a USB to USB mini-b cable, which are quite inexpensive, but totally worth it. You may already have one as they go with many devices (hard drives and some phones).

No - you will still have to connect it to a computer (PC or Mac) that has application software like Microsoft Office Reader or Powerpoint.

It needs to be configured thru your laptop or PC. It's not too complicated.

How does this connect to a PC? Does it need a Pi box or can I use a USB or other cable to connect it to a laptop?

Genius uses a USB node. I have used it up to 8 feet away from my computer. Would be great for presentations. It takes some practice to get used to the different mouse functions, but once you get used to the scrolling/air function you'll be ok.

The microphone will plugin into most desk top/ laptop computers through usb. No additional programs are needed. Tablets and phones will likely need different hook up methods. Being a computer question there are if and buts.
