I'd rather give a $5 to every 5th person than a $1 item to everyone. Plus, some of our market segments are covered for (nearly) free. I plan to have a small space at LFNW for doing penguin& geeko origami. The paper costs ~$5 for 100 pieces, and a single laminated sheet provides the full instructions. Some people don't know the product; a promo DVD is ideal for them, something of slightly higher value may be in order for longer-time users or advocates. Its a great way to reconnect, say "thank you" to the users, and generate buzz :)
I LOVE IT! While the kids come along and insist on playing with the origami, the parents will have no choice but to stand there and chat with us about openSUSE.>:)
We should certainly make this a recommendation for everyone to try in their booths. Extremely low-cost way to get people to visit our booths.

*extremely good idea*. For usb keys, it's always possible to load the distro on a user furnished key. But what could be possible is to add an usb support *to the box*. Selling the box is a very good way to spread openSUSE. Don't forget than people tend to give more valu at thing paid (I know, for free software it's a shame, but I see this every day) jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xgxog7_clip-l-ombre-et-la-lumiere-3-bad-pig... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FGgv_ZFtV14 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-marketing+help@opensuse.org
