Hey there,

just found this on the Steam forum.
Put this into your browser's address bar and Steam will begin to pre-load the demo, even if you haven't pre-purchased the game. :)

steam://preload/590

You won't be able to play yet, but it saves you the time you'd need for downloading when the demo is released for all people.:)

I thought they didn't really use the Steam's protocol preload feature. Anyway, I've already pre-purchased the game. Too bad the preload doesn't work for the full game. :S

Some people got a Steam news some days ago, that the demo now can be pre-loaded by everyone, two frriends got the message, I didn't get it and wasn't able to find a "pre-load" game button in Steam. So I don't know if it's illegal or not, but why should some people be allowed to pre-load the demo and others not? And I'm not talking of other people who pre-ordered, I'm talking about the "normal" people. ;)
And I found it on the official Steam forums, the thread didn't get removed so it should be ok.

Is Steam installed on your PC? The link won't work without Steam.

Lots of people already know this, but you can now download the demo via steam.
