This is very true, having recently put on an event where everything was
done on free software (a few pics here:
http://www.pawfal.org/openlab/index.php?page=Openlab1Details) it was very
interesting to talk to people about linux and actually using it for
creative use. It all becomes less theoretical when they can see it all
working - we used a lot of projections of the software in use, as well as
more traditional visuals.

One comment: "I've never seen linux doing... so much!"
