I think that Torleif is going to demonstrate his friends the outstanding features of Linux remotely on a Window machine not the LTSP server . Unless his friends bringing their notebooks to his home/office where a LTSP server is running, then he can demonstrate to them both Linux and LTSP on their notebooks simultaneously. Will his friends do it in this way? Another solution is to send his friends each an interactive CD highlighting the major features of Linux. To create such a CD is not an easy job. It is time consuming and you have to be well experienced on Micromedia's Flash and Fire Work and Kai's SlideShow and Soaps. You can make a very wonderful interactive CD. I am full award of this paintsticking task. My target of this posting is to see whether some folks on the list can shed me some light to find an easy solution making use of a CD for introducing Linux to Windows guys. Send them a CD and they can run it straight-forwards on Windows machine without installation.
