(Sun) 1. The state of being heads down in order to finish

2. <games> (Or "attract mode") A mode in which video games sit
by themselves running through a portion of the game. Some
serious apps have a demo mode they use as a screen saver, or
may go through a demo mode on startup (for example, the
Microsoft Windows opening screen - which lets you impress
your neighbors without actually having to put up with
Microsloth Windows).
