I agree with ankur dai, ani remember your audience will be average
computer users. If you use toooo much technical terms, and only few
people will get it, then it will send a COMPLETELY WRONG MESSAGE
INSTEAD.

For example; from the above article from point 1-11 a basic computer
user will care very less about.....
---------
Update every single piece of software on my system with a single action

Update nearly everything on my computer without a reboot.

Take my settings with me where ever I go

Run Internet Explorer 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, and 7.0 on the same desktop.

Understand everything that is going on in my computer.

Customize every aspect of my desktop.

naaaa they dont expect that from windows too. And if you use the word
security, firewalls n bla bla..... etc tooo often the show WONT be
exciting at all.....

general computer users expect fun with computers! talk with them about
live cd in general language........ tell them you can get those live
CD from khassa bajar or new road to see how linux looks like! (maybe
some of you could visit few shops after then to distribute some live
CD at your cost price if it catches attension). Tell them their
benifits.

i am using the word "general computer users" because thats where the
mass audience is, and we should lead the program in a way we target
those general audience NOT some hundred few wanna be linux geeks.

 i believe, the show should be in a way.... the host (the girl who
isnt technically sound, you guys were talking about) should understand
your subject matter. You guys are there to promote FOSS talking about
its benifits, intresting things........... NOT scare ppl. off talking
abt technical stuffs.

just a thought.....,
