A demo is a demonstration, showing off your programming/gfx/music talent.
The demo crews arrange demo parties where they display their demos and win
prices. It's all about pushing the limits of what's possible on a computer.
Still, I doubt that Doug would like demo programmers. They're usually all
quick'n'dirty, not a trace of the kind of academic programming practices which
Doug seems to prefer.
