Good examples of MapServer / OpenLayers


I want to convince some clients to use MapServer and OpenLayers. Please can anyone suggest attractive websites to show off the possiblities!

The clients will be impressed by:

MapServer.org is back up but demo.mapserver.org seems to be down right now :( But from memory their examples didn't have the "wow" factor. The OpenLayers examples demonstrate only one or two features per example - I want something to wow the clients by showing all the capabilities in one example.

PS If you have good examples that use some other open source tools, post them by all means. But just JavaScript please: customer says no rich client.

EDIT Come on StackOverflow, someone must have an example that uses a density map?? I'm even offering a bounty now...
