Well, here are some quick answers:
1) once you run the prebuilt container, it behaves very similar to a real server. Basically, you enter the container and install anything you want as you would on a normal server, ie. using yum, apt, compile from source, etc.
2) see above. CentOS based container can use EPEL, RPMForge or any other repository
3) the main difference is that you can't install any kernel modules from within the container. There are other differences, depending on what you want to do...
4) best thing you could to is to try for yourself...
5) we are using 64-bit versions of CentOS with OpenVZ and have no problems
