JOGL

So, I read up a little on Java OpenGL, which is a little thing which makes graphics zoom like greased lightning. The demo used 3D graphics, and ran at 700-900 frames per second. Fucking... amazing. I figure that even though it is made to work with 3D applications, it can work wonders also on 2D applications. But, it looks a little complicated, and I'll probably need a little help to get going with it.

EDIT- Holy shit this shit is complicated. I don't understand it at all. But, haha, I once remember being in fourth grade, and having to deliver a message to an eight grade teacher. I took one look at the math on the board, and thought I would never understand that stuff. I've been a math genius ever since. So one day I might actually buy a book on it and fucking delve into the code. Until then, I shall settle for simplicity and mediocre performance.

After 4 and a half hours... virus scan still going! 588,000 files scanned. Fucking Microsoft Flight Simulator. That's 100,000 files right there at least. Where did all these files come from?
