What graphics software are you running? All the graphics I have seen
on Mac's was much slower than the stuff I use on my PC (assuming
equivalent cpu speeds). The only slow graphics I see on my PC
is Autocad. Remember that normal non-II macs have a VERY tiny 342x512
useful area screen. PC's these days normally use 480x640. I have
NEVER seen animation work really right on a MAC - I have seen it on
PC's (in 16 or more colors).
