That is something you will do at a newbie events. Wasn't this supposed
to be a devel meet?
Try to highlight the ease of use, maintenance and developing on
Debian. Debian provides an excellent cross-platform development
environment.
Expect an audience who knows how to partition disks and run VMs. Not
just emulators and eye candy.
As I understand it, Vasudev is looking at the techie audience in and
around Mangalore.

Best to use 360/500 MB drives - if still available - that is all it
takes to have a proper running Debian system. Ah. but you want the
GUI, don't you?
