Be nice to all the other guests.  Don't rant at the media, just
quietly make _your_ point if they ask you.  Don't do anything illegal
or impolite.  Listen when others talk.

Most important: be the kind of guest the others will miss if you do
get thrown out.  That means Microsoft has the choice of letting the
thing turn into a Linux event, at least partly (good for us) or
overreacting and throwing all the Linux users out (bad for them.)

If we're polite and reasonable, it's either we win or they lose.
