v7 UI Overhaul

[Stoneymonster]

My 2001 PowerMac w/ 867 MHz Motorola PowerPC G4 CPU and GeForce 3 graphics w/ 64 MB of VRAM had no trouble with shadows, textures, and other skeumorphic UI elements on a 20" screen. Is the Tegra 3 being discussed here less powerful than that?

No certainly not. And there are two of them, one for the dash and one for the center console.
