 	Ack, looks like the new full-speed acpi patch for the fan 
allows me to use OpenGL a bit longer, but not indefinitely. It just 
hard-locked the machine at about 45 minutes, with the CPU at 49C and 
the GPU at 55C.

 	I'll have to find some better cooling. Who knew this would run 
the silicon so darn hot!
