[ILUG] Pitching Open Source Software to school kids

[ILUG] Pitching Open Source Software to school kids

Hi all,

In a few days, I'll be giving a presentation to some secondary school pupils
to promote Open Source software.

I've a fair idea what I'm going to talk about, but was wondering if you, the
wonderful ILUG community, had any tips on how I should approach it?

I know that for the most part, kids aren't too bothered if their software is
free as in speech, so I won't be highlighting that part of the argument.

What'ya reckon? Lots of flashy eye candy? Free as in beer?

Looking forward to yere input.

Regards,
