Ummmm on a PC I guess... though I belive there is a Win'95 version which
runs pretty fast... in addition I believe that 3D accelerated
products are springing up for Win '95/NT, and are taking advange of
the GDI layer...

No. You're still running in a (X) window! It just happens to be the
same size as your screen resolution and doesn't have any borders or
decorations! You can still resize and move it etc....

Don't know about Impacts et al... but the lowest resolution available
on RE^2/VTX is 640x480 or 745x224...
So no. (for RE/VTX)
Thou, from experience, even if you've got a really fill-limited app
and "only" a VTX or RE with 1 RM, you can still kick ass and
multi-sample at 640x480... looks a *bit* fuzzy but OK from a couple of
feet away...
