Here:

<http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/coreimage/>

On the right hand side, toward the bottom are some video cards that Core
Image takes advantage of. I also read somewhere that Core Image is not all
or nothing. You can have limited support from your GPU even if it's not
listed...

firebottle n.obs.: A large, primitive, power-hungry active electrical
device, similar in function to a FET but constructed out of glass, metal,
and vacuum. Characterized by high cost, low density, low reliability,
high-temperature operation, and high power dissipation. Sometimes mistakenly
called a `tube' in the U.S. or a `valve' in England; another hackish term is
glassfet.
