... on 3D-heavy cards, no?

I wonder what those same tests would show for the S3 Trio64 my sister
runs, or the ATI RageIIC my mother runs. I'm not disparaging your
efforts, but:
  * A first-class windowing system is wasted if all the apps around are
    crap, or don't make use of it, or both.
  * Have you tested on lower-end cards, or only the new, insane,
    3D-centric cards? A performance hit on already-slow graphics
    hardware would be bad.
