The so-called "Star Wars demo" was a demo created to show off the High Speed
SCSI card.  It's about 40 seconds or so of greyscale images from a scene
in Star Wars, spooled from disk directly to the video screen.  It was very
smooth, but it took up a about 40mb of the 80mb hard drive Jim Merrit (I think
it was Jim, this was a fairly long time ago) brought it on.
