I was thinking that a live cd booted up on a Windows machine could demonstrate 
Linux and that there was no harm done to the Windows install - just shutdown 
the live Linux install, remove disk and you are able to boot into Windows as 
before. It may help to reassure Windows users that Linux won't affect their 
system. I have a couple of bootable USB keys too - one with Kubuntu (7.04 I 
think) and another with something else - possibly PCLinuxOS I think - which 
are pretty interesting. The Kubuntu key actually has a partition for saving 
data on it, so it is like a mini hard drive really.

Thanks for the info on where to go - I know Market Jew Street and the big car 
park near the harbour, so that was ideal :)
