As your links show, these are PDFs, not MSPowerpoint .ppt files.  Powerpoint is
only one way to do presentations (there is always LibreOffice if you want more
or less the same functionality for free).

I think you will find that your examples are created with Latex, using the
Beamer class (Google both Latex and Beamer, also
http://jeromyanglim.blogspot.com.au/2010/08/getting-started-with-beamer-tips-and.html
).

You might also like to have a look at http://www.lyx.org/ as an alternative
front-end for Latex, and http://impressive.sourceforge.net/ for displaying
presentations in PDF form.

Hope this helps,

Hi,

It's not a standard format for R presentations, but you can certainly use
it. The blue and white style you referenced is one of the standard Beamer
themes. Those people are using LaTeX and Sweave to write their presentations.

You'd need to install LaTeX for your OS and do some reading, but it's a
very nice system once you get the hang of it.
