No loyalty, involved. Just clarity.
Enabled for this service in its default setting has no impact. No 
activity, no cpu usage, no background activity, no disk activity - 
dormant and unused.
  => no bearing unless one purchased a retail demo pc(floor model).
  - The only other possible way on any device(retail or OEM) to activate 
the service's feature is to perform a detailed sequence of steps (which 
no one in a consumer, smb, or enterprise environment does or has need 
too[maybe only you and Darrin DeYoung] to instruct Windows to obtain the 
latest available demo and content and then and only then configure the 
demo mode to run until the demo's admin access is removed, a 
predetermined time, or permanently after setting up an admin password.

i.e. for this forum, your comment is basically useless and just another 
complaint lacking clarity and value added benefit - adjusting this 
service from its default(manual, no started)yields the exact same result .
