Hi all

(probably been mentioned)

How about a demonstration on cracking several desktops and the methods used
to detect illegal use of PC's software etc at work. You could show someone
cracking different OS's so that it would not be biased.

>From inside.
>From outside.

The way that you could attract the viewer is to advertise it as "Are you
being watched" everyone is paranoid about there boss reading there email and
surfing the web at work so a lot of people would watch it.

One problem I would see here is that a lot of people would see Guru's (there
perception) on the telly and assume you need to be a guru to do or use the
stuff they use. So if said Guru says he only uses Linux the ordinary user
will then associate his/her level of competency with it.
