It has to be done in a reasonably quick time with available resources. 
Many a times even giving a demo on a first visit can be very difficult. 
Network boots are not possible in stand alone machines. A client of mine 
has a decent Asus board that's a few years old but no Debian based 
distro boots live into this. I have a collection of live CDs that I 
carry everywhere. Finally only Sabayon booted with full desktop. I would 
get various device IO errors with the debby ones. After wasting more 
than an hour trying various distros and boot options, the client gets 
fidgety and starts forming his opinion about GNU/Linux.
