   How about a ready and working demo machine for new users to try? There
could be some people who turn up having heard of Linux but never seen it
working, so provide plenty of interesting packages for them to play with.
Perhaps also have a file with short descriptions of some of the packages;
they may get bored and start to scroll through, but they would be aware of
the huge variety available. (It can take me several days to read the Debian
list to decide what I need).
