I would go further to say that a live animated demo is always worse than putting the output of the same demo in text that you can follow at the pace you choose.

They are not flashy or interesting. They are an immediate turnoff, at least to me.

Unless, of course, there are in-place animations or a curses-based UI.

It's the first I've heard of that. Interesting.

I am going to consider moving the animated demo down.
