Ah, that's too bad.

It's going to be a while though, before my OpenGL skills have advanced
to the point that hardware accelleration really matters.

These I'm doing pretty good to draw a rainbow-colored square in a GLUT window.

Maybe by the time I become the 1337 graphics h4x0r, the radeon driver
will be able to accellerate with my card.
