So, then, you're saying that, on the Mac at least, my use of the

Again, David, if you're interested in learning more about how drawing
is handled in OS X, I highly recommend the Ars Technica pages I
linked to earlier:
Im not really interested in how drawing works on OS X. What I'm
interested is your assertion about how drawing interacts with
graphics cards *on PCs*. My reading and understanding lead me to
believe that it works differently than the way you've described the
process.
I don't think I *have* described the process on PCs, except to say
that my understanding is that 2D drawing in WinXP does not rely as
heavily on the graphics card as Mac OS X does. (And, of course, that
Vista will bring considerable changes in this area.)
Cheers,
- Darcy
