Looks like we have different definitions of hw acceleration. If it is not 
D3D/OpenGL/OpenES it is not accelerated in my book (hw acceleration = gfx card 
does the job, and no the standard 2D acceleration from 20 years ago does not 
count). Perhaps carbon qualifies but I don't know enough about its interiors or 
better I don't how the textures are created that they pass to OpenGL.
And would you please stop talking about SSE.
