Actually they come up terrible/unusable. Yes I realize that there are LO
templates available for presentations (not posters that I know of) but I don't
control when a scientific conference requires a poster made from a PPT
template. It's kind of like going to a foreign country and suggesting they all
speak your language instead of you trying speaking theirs. So unless you are
suggesting that practically every scientific and engineering conference also
support LO file formats (which I'm not opposed to) up front, LO/OOo users will
be out in the cold.

As to latter question. These are poster sessions that are large print-outs
where researchers stand in front of posters during the session and answer
questions. You will find poster sessions at pretty much every level and type of
scientific/engineer discipline. They standardize on PowerPoint because it can
handle large formats and most users have it, requiring something else would add
$ burden and learning curve. If you give presentation usually separate ppoint
slide deck is also required.
