With all of this cartoon talk, I decided to load the flash viewer into my office LinuxCNC setup that is running on a Intel 330 dual core board (older and slower than a D525MW) and see if I can watch cartoons, while RUNNING the control program for my engraver (also in the office) which uses a LPT interface to stepper drives.
Heck ya! http://picpaste.com/Screenshot-8-X5U3qx4m.png Notice that is a Samsung 27" screen running in full HD. Gotta love hardware acceleration!! :-) I don't know what you guys did to screw up your D525MW setups but I CAN watch cartoons now while running the engraver.. Someone try this with an Intel Cedarview 2500, 2700, or 2800 board and tell us if it works or not... Remember, this is a full HD screen. Not that this is a good idea ... but it is possible!
