Wow that's neat, I'm a big fan of the Mandelbrot set. (offtopic, I just created an explorer for the nintendo DS: http://blog.davr.org/ ). I definately look forward to seeing the source when you finish it up.

Hi Mike, I won't be posting the source of this one yet (it's a mess), but I quickly converted this Beta 2 / 3 example I did to illustrate the power of .lock(). http://www.unitzeroone.com/flex_2/mandelbrot_explorer/ It's a simple Mandelbrot explorer, it was one of my first attempts of creating a Flex component. I just polished it up so it works again, it's not finished. If you first change the settings to one of the larger ones (Either HUGE, Fraczilla or WS), then hit "draw", look at the Ms, then change the lock checkbox, hit draw again, and see the MS rise. On my duo core machine it makes about 200Ms of difference in WS size.
