  Comparatively slow? You can use XaoS to zoom into the Mandelbrot set
(and other fractals) in real-time. Fractint isn't that good.

  Btw, "continental drift" is an obsolete theory. "Plate tectonics" is the
currently accepted one.

  (Of course you are talking figuratively, but I couldn't help but nitpick.)
