A couple of years ago I was a volunteer at the local library, and was
doing the sys admin duties there. My attempts to install linux on the
public machines was met with reluctance, and I got tired of reloading
windows on the machines, so we parted company.

Since then, the old regime at the library collapsed, and new one is now
in place.

Yesterday I went on a recon mission, and learned that 3/4 of the
machines are labeled out of service. (Surprise)

I also had a nice chat with the acting Librarian, and learned that the
guy that was maintaining the system, had jumped ship with the old
regime. So, I offered her my services, and she invited me to attend the
Board of Director's meeting, tomorrow, at 6pm!

Anybody have tips, and or links for putting together a quick and dirty
sales pitch?

TIA.
