Doing it in a VM is a good idea.  I would suggest using a Free
alternative like kvm; you have time to learn it :)

Also as a backup it might be a good idea to record a video of your
demonstration so that if it doesn't work during your talk, you have a
fallback.

We don't dictate how you do your presentation.  That said, we would be
really happy if you choose Free alternatives wherever you can.  Our
focus is the topic of your session and we want that to be about Open
Source Software.
