But that's the point. The goal of the Free Software movement is not to get every person running free software, but to educated people on _why_ they should care, and why they should insist on running free software for themselves.
Installing Ubuntu on a bunch of people's computers and saying "see how much better linux is than Windows" misses the point. I think that's the main flaw in these so called "install fests."
The Free Software movement argues from a moral standpoint, not a standpoint of technical superiority. Otherwise you set yourself up for a constant back and forth of "but this thing was easier on windows."
That's not the point.
