Where Can One Find Promotional Videos for Linux?

awa asks: "I'm writing on behalf of the Costa Rican LUG (Grupo de Usuarios de Linux de Costa Rica). We are organising a conference on the use of free and Open Source software in Costa Rica, by proxy of its use in third world countries in general, but applied to our own case. Phil Hughes (of Linux Journal fame) is in our Country and has agreed to be a speaker at the event. We were lucky to get permission to use the auditorium of a private university (Universidad Latina de Costa Rica) for the conference, as it has all kinds of goodies (audio-, video- and networkwise). The stage has three giant screens, each with its own projector, and we thought a good use for them would be to show promotional Linux videos, however we have not found anything (film/movie-wise) that would suit our needs aside from short 'How-To' videos. Does anyone know where we can find such films, what format they might be available in, and so forth. We are willing to pay any reasonable fees for transfer and/or shipment of anything that suits our intended use."

Re:The suck video.

It's from Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie [deadtroll.com], and it's called "Every OS Sucks."

Their mp3.com site is linked off of their page. The video's pretty non-value added, IMHO, just the guys in the studio. Great song!

'nother question

[akb]

I don't have an answer but I'll ask a related question. Anyone have any video of RMS speaking? I'd like to put it on cable access. I recall that there was a large mpeg2 of a speech he gave haven't been able to track that down. tia

Promotional Seminars on Linux, et al.

I'd say that the first place to look is http://TechNetCast.org (run by the people of Dr Dobbs Journal).

Also, at least for those who peddle[d] SCO UNIX products (OSR 5 and/or UNIXWARE), look on one or your recent CD-ROMs for an intro to Linux (not so much promotional as informative for the newbie.

Sorry...
