And mention that this is native to the windowing system and has been so since 
the late 80's (1987 I think).

Also mention that customizibility is beyond anything a Windows or Mac user 
could imagine. Changing colors, themes and the "look" is just the beginning. 
You can choose your desktop environment which controls how programs interact 
and window managers which controls how windows behave on a more fundamental 
level.

Showing off the terminal could also help. Making sure to mention that the 
command line cannot even be compared to a terminal with hundreds or thousands 
of programs plus the ability to combine most of them.

Also mention drawback and _why_ they are drawbacks. Most drawbacks are _not_ 
the fault of GNU/Linux and its developers. It is mostly due to laws, 
restrictions placed by corporations and by producers of 
software/hardware/etc.
