You mean the Blender internal renderer?  Umm, that's a fully-fledged 
raytracer with multiple reflections/refractions, ray traced shadows, ambient 
occlusion, all that stuff etc, as you will know from the POV/GPU discussion 
these things are quite hard to do on a GPU, if possible at all.

Of course the editor view in Blender is using the GPU, but the materials 
that are shown are a limited cut-down version of what will appear in the 
render window.
