Hi

A friend and I are brainstorming on a 2 hour presentation to give to Universities and Colleges across Liverpool. To increase awareness and show students that they can save money using free/open source software. This is scheduled for around September 2011.
rather than focussing on saving money I would seek to explain about how Free software can be economically transformative by allowing you to redistribute it without counting the number of times you do so, thus allowing you to scale things out without incurring crippling costs. Look at huge server farms like google/facebook/twitter etc. or even the fact that I have about 15 VMs on my laptop that I fire up to do work for different customers. Give me a shout if you want some Natty CDs to hand out (might not have many by September though)
