There are no hard and fast numbers for any deployments of any type of
Linux. It is one of the most vexing things for marketing Linux in
general. However, I would ask on the #edubuntu-users lists to see what
sort of schools run Ubuntu/Edubuntu.

Nicholas,
I don't have anything like that in my personal archive, sorry.  Could you take 
a few minutes and answer some questions for me?

1) What size?  8 1/2 by 11?
2) Do you want to edit the document to put in your date/time/place info.  What 
would you be using for the Edit?  OpenOffice, Koffice?
3) Please give me some phrases you'd like to see on the posters to catch 
students attention.  
4) Is the "animal name" of the release important for your event?

Thanks!
Dave Thacker
