State of the Art is one of my favorites.. I think demos should be judged on a few merits.. While that one may not win for displaying 50 million sprites or sine scrollers, it was still quite entertaining. I can appreciate pushing the hardware, but that's not all a demo is.. As a prime example, a vector sphere might be difficult to do but ... in the end it looks just like a circle and nothing more, even with lighting; I'm watching a demo, not reading source code.
