When a tech demo is the only thing being processed it makes the rendering that much easier.
I think the dramatic effect still shines, however.

Whoa whoa whoa. No. That's not what I meant at all.
I said the raindrops and sunflowers could be processed by the PS3! All of that schmaltzy crap. Why didn't they use the
PS3? I would have a ton more respect for Sony if they came up front and showed us exactly what the PS3 was by rendering
everything. I said the exact same thing for the "This is Living" boxing ad. If your graphics and Cell processor are so impressive, Sony, why don't you render WHAT YOU'RE DISPLAYING RIGHT NOW.
Really, this marketing approach doesn't build any trust with me.
