Well, yes, but this isn't addressing Bryan's specification of a "frameless"
display. Certainly you can put all kinds of nifty features into
display hardware, and I'm familiar in general with fancy architectures
like E&S, Silicon Graphics, the Amiga :-) etc. The example of vector
graphics on a non-pixelated display took care of the previous set of
questions. Now we're working on what it means to not have any frames,
yet still have "normal" features like base-register page flipping,
virtual screens bigger than physical screens, etc, etc.
