version 3
I generate my presentations with org-mode in emacs and the beamer LaTeX class(pdf). I then display them as PDFs with the Preview app on my Mac, running in full screen mode. I use iRed Lite to enable controlling the presentation with my mac's included remote.
I also use Caffeine to prevent my laptop from going to sleep during the presentation.
