I have demoed a virtualized OpenStack 3-node deployment via Packstack on 
my laptop using a bridged DHCP interface (no Virtualbox, just plain 
libvirt & KVM) on CentOS 7 VMs. It paints a nice picture of what a real 
deployment looks like so I prefer it over the single-node allinone option.

2 hours should cover the installation and enough time to deploy an 
instance, going through the GUI, answer questions and play around. 
Explaining Neutron networking however easily takes a lifetime :)

Might be useful to add a mirror of the RDO (Juno EL7) repo too:
