Check out Duality. I forgot who made it, but a search should turn that up
easily enough. If you haven't heard of it, think Kaliedescope(sp?) for
OSX. While it doesn't get rid of transparency itself, many of the theme
style do, it will speed up screen redaws, although not a drastic amount in
my experiance, but then again, I didn't have a supported video card at the
time.
