Having both pitched, critiqued and been critiqued, seeing the range of presentation and communication skills at Disrypt NYC is very 'illuminating'. However, in addition to what has already been mentioned by olivercameron, there are couple of things that should encourage us to pause in completely dismissing lumier. Firstly, good presentations and good products are not synonymous, nor is the opposite universally true. Secondly, not having a full demo does not mean that the idea lacks value or relevance. I think the key thing here is that Cullen had difficulty articulating his vision, or the product's promise. Whether he proposes simply to skin windows (like a mac) and extend it into the cloud (like the Chrome notebook), or he envisions something else entirely, that was not made clear.
