The calculations for SVG technically take more cycles to do than just drawing a raster does. I'm guessing the 10 year old computer at my dad's house would be slower with SVG than with rasters, but P4 and newer wouldn't have any noticeable difference at all. Maybe having a powerful GPU makes the point moot, but vectors do require more calculations than rasters do. -- Mackenzie Morgan Linux User #432169 ACM Member #3445683 <a href="http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com">http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com</a> <-my blog of Ubuntu stuff apt-get moo
