Are you making a presentation to students to provide general information about linux? are you teaching a class on computing and using linux as the platform? are you teaching programming using linux as the platform? Are these kids currently computer users or are they total computer newbies? If you are teaching programming to any level of computer user, I personally would start at the command line and build your way up to a full desktop system as their programming skills develop. "Hello World" does not need a gui and students could get bogged down trying to understand it. When their skills develop such that they are ready to build small gui apps, then teach them how to install a gui and the libraries required to build the program. If your teaching general computer usage then I'd plop them down in front of a fully installed gui and let them click away. thats my .02 anyway. A
