Does this mean, we will be able to make some kick ass 2D games using Win32::GUI
and PERL?
Shouldn't that need some type of threading ?

I've played with this too. Got the basics working, but found OpenGL (and
DirectX for that matter) to heavy for what I needed at the time (fast simple 2D
graphics).

Nice.
Win32::GUI::OpenGL then? :)

Good work - and thanks for the example.
Feel free to drop me a mail off list as I can probably help here - I have got a
3rd party C++ graphics module painting into a Win32::GUI child window.
Cheers,
Jeremy.
