!   Hardware accelerated rendering means that the graphics hardware contains its 
!   own processor to boost performance levels. These processors are specialized 
!   for computing graphical transformations, so they achieve better results than 
!   the general-purpose CPU. In addition, they free up the 
!   computer's CPU to execute other commands while the graphics accelerator is 
!   handling graphics computations.
