Here's my CMS live demo list; I have installed or customized these and others (tracd/Mambo).   This is a good list for customers who don't know what they want and suggest you build a lot of "demos".  
Be sure you realize that this is not the most current version.  Be sure you check out the security issues for each of these (for instance WordPress and MediaWiki have known issues). Be sure to patch your systems regularly and follow all instructions to secure your PHP/Mysql.
