Hi all, Some time next month I'm going to be giving a talk, primarily to computer/electrical engineering students (but I'm sure some CS and others will show up) about Linux. The talk will be an intro to get started and to encourage them to try it out. One would hope many would know it already but I know that few really have had much experience with it.
I have a few things that I'm going to cover but I'm also planning to give out copies of Ubuntu (as well as index cards with instructions on using and a download link to Virtual Box). The hope is that people will try it as a live CD or as a VM without feeling the need (at least immediately) to install over their existing OS or dual boot. Are there specific topics that you would recommend that you feel 'everyone should know'? I have some things in mind but I want to get some additional ideas. Any suggestions?
