I have an idea.  I can bring a 22 Inch LCD monitor (if anyone has a 
bigger/brighter one that would be great) that we can use to play a 
fullscreen video on auto loop.  I have been playing around with desktop 
recording software (gtk-record-my-desktop / istanbul) - and it seems 
possible to record pretty high framerate demos if you have good 
hardware.  A 5-10 minute video showing off the ubuntu desktop (compiz / 
Gnome/ Kubuntu) and some great applications (OpenOffice / Synaptic / 
Hulu / UbuntuOne etc) would be pretty easy to do and make look 
professional.
