Also you can turn off OpenGL in the interactive rendering prefs and still get the same performance you are used to in 1.1's OpenGL implementation. In 1.x OpenGL for Mac provided very little, if any, difference from the Softare setting! So in this case you won't be missing out on anything, it will be exactley like 1.x. I know this is no consulation, but it is a temporary work around. :-) -Paul
