I imagine there are many more people who would be interested in trying openoffice, firefox, thunderbird, gimp, inkscape, etc on their windows or macintosh system - providing them with CDs with all the open source software they need for a small donation would surely work excellently. We could even organise 2 events - one in devon and one in cornwall - we have 2 local radio stations in cornwall and I'm sure I get speak to somebody to get a mention on at least one of them. If we're holding two events *and* they're open to a broader range of people that could even make the local TV news and papers if we can announce it far enough in advance. How much longer have we got to organise?
