Ubuntu presentation for user group?

[Jason Ribeiro]

Hey Jack,

Regarding "canned" presentations, check out
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Presentations and
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam .  Someone on the marketing team
might have some more advice, might want to try their list as well or
their irc channel on freenode.
