I may be able to do that, not sure. Atm updates for dapper are usually 
popping up that 'restart required' notification, but hopefully that will 
end after official release.

I think maybe my best course of action on this is to reinstall my main 
machine come official release and setup apt-proxy straight away, then 
make note of programs I need to install on top of that. Then I can 
connect this other machine over local network and show installation of a 
few of those programs.

My other thought was having a copy of the DVD iso. I have not downloaded 
this before so I have no idea about how much extra is on the DVD.  Can 
anyone tell me whether having the install DVD will give me enough extra 
useful packages to install?

At this stage we will be setting up a P3/900 with a clean dapper install 
and then showing off various bits and pieces of a clean install. Then 
switching to my already install and modifying box to show what is 
possible with theming, multimedia, displaying XGL movie, and anything else.
