There are quite a few more machines with hard disks than with 8
megs of memory. Perhaps in the future the 8MB demos could be done
in such a way as to run in a small amount of memory, and be read from
the hard disk on the fly. This would make large anims available to a
much larger audience.


Check out the DISKANIM program that came with the October/November issue of
Amiga+ magazine. It does exactly what you're talking about.
