..maybe either hide the fps display or use it to tell 
what's going on until the splash screen events are all 
done?  Either approach would keep us from turning away 
the "2 fps in a Flight Sim???  Forget it!!!"-crowd.

..the splash screen events, _are_ actually the first few 
impressions new people get, e.g. reviewers doing reviews.

  Scenarios always come in sets of three: 
  best case, worst case, and just in case.
