The sounds was played from a cheap Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook... I wasn't expecting any wonders but it was actually worse than I expected. It was fun looking at the noise from the audio out while moving f.e. the mouse... everything on the machine seems to affect the audio output. What crappy DAC they put in those...
I was going to say it looks like your computer's sound hardware is to blame. I ran it from a powerbook at the full 48khz/24bit and it looks dead on like the original except that my scope is not so good. If I run it at 32khz/16bit with the volume low it looks like this video. The quality difference between even 44.1khz and 48khz is noticeable. I have some 96khz/24bit equipment here; I'd like to know if the original demo is available in an even higher quality format...

Yeah, bad grounding ruined it. Also the digital oscilloscope is somehow unable to keep the tracking stable.
