Squeak is not your normal booring IDE. It's a lot more, and it might be 
good to show this in the talk.

I guess you will use something like PowerPoint for doing the whole 
presentation. Why not use Squeak instead?
Then you have all you want: You have a real, working, live Demo of 
Squeak, without leaving the medium that
you use.

e.g. have a look at the Squeak Demo that I did at the european Ruby 
conference last year.

You are welcome to reuse this! It has everything that a small demo 
needs: What isSqueak, the History , a
short introduction into the language, and so on. But be sure to look at 
the "living" version. The GIFs are
just for those who don't have Squeak installed.

And you can be sure that this is much more fun than doing powerpoint 
slides.
