Thanks.  Straight lines?  nope.  If you look closely, when it bounces off
the wall, the motion blur looks like this: \/.  It recalculates the
position with the bounce macro for each motion blur image.  This way, you
don't get straight-line motion.

Hmmm... Even if it still exists, I highly doubt they came out with a
macintosh patch.  Sounds like an interesting idea though.  I wonder how it
works.
