The initial version of LW 4.0 will not have OpenGL support, so any additional
3D performance will be of little consequence. What will make a difference is
2D performance. The graphics subsystem that provides the fastest bitblts and
line draws should prove to be better. I'm not sure what the difference is
between the XL and XZ in 2D ops.
