Apparently, there's quite a bit of content, as the download is fairly huge at 2.4 GB. An equally huge list of mirrors is available here. Note that the demo also includes a stripped-down version of the game's map editor.
ArmA II doesn't look quite as pretty as most recent shooters, but that's because the game worlds are enormous, and the online game supports up to 50 players (and a myriad of vehicles and other stuff). Although it has a strong FPS element to it, it's more of a "war sim," which means the command and control system is extremely complicated. Overall, it looks a lot like CoD4 in its setting, but be prepared for a much steeper learning curve. Also, expect lots of bugs.
I'm going to download it while I'm at work tomorrow. If anyone's interested in trying it on Saturday, give me a buzz.
