A thought ... are you going to give the clients the opportunity to run
local apps selectively ?  If so, I'd be happy to arrange for a separate
server at the show with a readonly export to the client's /usr/local.

That way, the stable server could have a script that tries to make the
mount then either puts up an apology message or runs the script command
        /usr/local/bin/$1 $*

The first script _I'd_ put on the server would check if the client's X
has got accelerated 3D and, if so, brings up the FlightGear simulator.
I'm sure some of the other server-intensive projects would contribute,
thereby making LTSP the preferred way to try new software at the show.
The neat thing is, the tryout happens on each user's own laptop ...
