Are you hoping for the same turn out as last year? 50 is a pretty decent
turnout for an open house on *nix -

As for what kind of presentation to give; It all depends on what type of
people will be there. Small business owners looking to get information on a
product line / service they can develop? Medium sized businesses looking to
weigh their options for the infrastructure of their company as they are
growing? Your neighbor Joe Bob?

It's better to explain how FOSS is viable for one thing or another than to
give a general overview of the issues and challenges of IT in general if
that is what the audience is there to discover. I guess the same goes for
what type of distros to bring along ;-)
