If they have something to do with FOSS then a demo would do wonders. Frankly I'm disgusted at Google stalls I see at conferences everywhere - and yeah was at Foss.in too this year where they had six big couches and two (admittedly better looking) girls =). Contrast that to the Sun stall at Foss.in and the energy and enthu of the people there was amazing. Used to think Sun was a crappy company but just the tech demos there had me converted. Please note, this is not a comparison of what M$ did versus what Google did or is doing, but just a comment on their conference stalls.
