Actually, I'm rather surprised at how low-end the XBox hardware and graphics 
stuff is. The CPU is surprisingly slow even at simple stuff like 
decompressing an image, and the graphics card pretty much chokes with about 
800 models with a couple hundred vertx each. You really have to work hard to 
make even really simple scenes render fast. I was hoping I could just throw 
simple graphics at it and have it eat easily, or at least close to as well 
as my fairly old PC graphics card.
