[Bf-funboard] GPU accelerated rendering

[Tom Musgrove]

Those of you who are interested in actually doing this should have a look at 
the course notes from Siggraph this year

http://www.gpgpu.org/s2004/

especially from the 3rd lecture though the 5th, after you've read those.  
Head over to sourceforge and get brook.

Note that it has been designed so that the shader languages can be compiled 
to it.  It is a fairly simple and intuitive addition to standard C, and can 
be compiled to ATI, Nvidia, or reverts to the regular processor if it either 
of those cards aren't available.
