You should know your audience. Choose what is right for them. For example, if 
they are mostly made out of people that are easily amazed by flashy 
and "cool" programs, show off Compiz. Search the Internet for the best video 
demonstrations of compiz, beryl and metisse. Show them how it's done, then 
give out a LiveCD or two with the programs you demonstrate (Mandriva for 
Metisse, Sabayon for Beryl).

Of course, if your audience is not so easily impressed by shiny things, show 
them something that will.
