All the demo footage so far has been on the Xbox yes, so the PC users are also missing out if you look at it this way! Todd has mentioned that it is just easier to show what the average user will be seeing and the demo is easier to load on on the Xbox. To give you some heart Oblivion was reported to run better on the PS3 than it did on the Xbox, but then again it was released AFTER the Xbox version was so Bethesda would have had the chance to iron out some kinks from the Xbox release and optimize it better accordingly. You have gotta remember that when Bethesda were working on Oblivion they hadn't even recieved the Xbox hardware yet, it wasn't until they were roughly half way through production that they actually got to take a look at the hardware! What does this mean for console owners? Todd has admitted that their programmers as a whole are MUCH more aware of the Xbox and PS3 hardware and their capabilities this time round with Skyrim, what this means is they can create the best looking game possible on BOTH consoles! PC will have more graphics options and high resolution textures as standard of course, might go get a Asus G74 gaming laptop and see how it handles Skyrim in Full-HD!
Don't stress is the bottom line, both versions will be great and Todd has mentioned how proud they are of both versions, how they look and play!
