I have in fact! One of the sales guys at our organisation was giving a
presentation to a client a month or so ago, and the hard drive in his
windows laptop died. He called on me to help them out, I realised what
the problem was soon enough, and since I had a Fedora 11 Live disk burnt
from a few days earlier, and the client was waiting, I took a chance. I
threw the CD into the laptop, and the "dead" laptop was revived.

All the sales guys now carry a live CD in their laptop bags "just in
case". None of them have been brave enough to replace their OS yet, but
at least I've implanted the idea in their minds that Fedora is an
alternative, and it can come to their rescue / is a good thing. They've
always known that the techies in the office don't run Windows, and now
have taken a little more interest in what we do run.
