Jonathan, I congratulate you for your new post as a chairman. Most newbies would be scared just looking at the titles chosen during the AGM! This is just my opinion, where I meet common users who have been used to windows all their life. I would rather go for something which shows the advantages of open source. Maybe we should promote programs which could be used in windows too. Then pass on to how to dual boot with windows before jumping on the big gun.....making a decision to use Linux.......
