I burn a bunch of live cd's, put some fancy graphic on the cd case, then bring 
them to our PC user group meetings promoting it as a safe way to surf the 
internet :)  On the flip side of the graphic, in bold lettering, is something 
to the effect of 'insert cd, restart computer'.  Hmm, maybe I should add 
something like 'having trouble? Join GRLUG!' 

The distro's I typically burn are PCLinuxOS and Sidux because KDE is a bit 
more windows-like plus hardware detection is pretty good, maybe not quite as 
good as Ubuntu but close.

Out of 12 sub-groups the linux group is now #2 in attendance ... behind 
genealogy believe it or not.
