In addition to Brian's answer, the "Impress Runner" extension/add-on http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/node/23 enables Impress to recognize the .pps file name extension and automatically start a slide show. Unlike Powerpoint and its free viewer, there is a small (matter of seconds) delay before the presentation starts, during which time the Impress editing window is visible.
