Maybe via the default Fedora wallpaper? I know there are legal issues
with putting the logo there, but we already have wallpapers to go with
each release. We can improve that.

I use stickers for that.
We are not going to have branding show up on the screen while someone
is actually presenting something on the projector. A big (f) sticker
on the laptop is much more visible than a tiny logo on the shell
chrome.
I am sure the big white glowing apple on the laptop's lid is much more
visible than a tiny black logo on the Mac OSX desktop.
