Couldn't do a Gentoo Stage 1
Ugh! That certainly wouldn't be the kind of install demo that I would recommend even if time did allow. Not that it would be great for a bunch of hard-core geeks, but I suspect all hardcore geeks have already done a Gentoo Stage 1 install by now. ;')
However a productivity demonstration might not be bad. Perhaps scanning in a logo, sticking in a letter, creating a letter, and doing a mail-merge. Or creating a presentation using Impress or KPresenter. With Massachussetts now going to OpenDoc format, perhaps a demonstration of various Office Apps sharing an OpenDoc document? Perhaps even ... dare I say it ... a Windows machine running an OpenDoc capable Office App and sharing between systems?
BTW, do we need people/stuff to help out at the booth/whatever? I could help out, but would need to arrange daycare.
