    I kind of prefer the old school demos on hardware-only platforms like the 8-bits or tthe 16-bit machines - C64s, Speccys, Amigas, etc - if only because it's a bit easier [for me] to appreciate the skills..

    ...all these modern PC-era ones rely upon deep layer stacks that include huge libraries like DirectX, etc, which are able to pull off huge effects with very little code.

    Not trying to dismiss the effort or value in these things - as I say, it's just a bit easier for me to see where the limitations lie.
