It doesnt matter whether youre getting into their computer for a cause
which you think of as a useful thing.
The act of removing their choice is in direct contradiction to the
ethos of floss.
Any action which you do for SFD should be respectful of the users
freedom and right to choose.
Set up computers which people can try.
Set up a game lan which people can try.
Have software available for people to take away.
Promote the kinds of things you use your free software for.
Have an install fest where people can bring their computer and you can
help them with installation
Show people open office and how it can make files which can be shared
with people using other platforms.
Support their choice but don't make it for them =)
