Comment (by tangobravo):
Another vote for slides here. Although long scroll pages are pretty common
for general marketing introductions to things, such as most overview-style
pages Apple put together, those types of sites tend to be very dynamic
with animating elements and text rather than just a set of screenshots.
Image galleries for example are almost always presented as slides rather
than long scrolling lists. I think there's something about the mental
effort required of mapping the "top" and "bottom" of an image that feels
much more taxing when they are part of a scrolling document. This is
especially the case for screenshots that share many elements in the same
placement (eg Deskbar, Desktop Icons etc).
