[glug-t] GNU/Linux Demo

The Physics Department of NITT wants us to give a demo on GNU/Linux.
I will let you know the date later. It will be sometime at our convenience.
I am giving a prototype set of softwares we can demostrate. Please let me know 
if it needs any changes. 

Lets make it a 3hr Demo.

Did I miss anything important?

First, we need a coordinator for this demo. Then we need voluteers who can take
