Myself and Bob have been looking at Ruby, so I was thinking about doing 
a 10 minute presentation on that.  Inkscape I can do, and so Wordpress, 
but I'd need a web connection for Wordpress.  My PC is currently running 
Ubuntu 6.06, so I can bring my box and show that, Inkscape and Ruby.

Simon wolverton has installed the beta of Vista, so he may be willing to 
do a talk or presentation on that.  I you're reading this Simon, you may 
want to install Wink [WWW http://www.debugmode.com/wink/ ] as it will 
let you make flash-based screen capture videos.
