Of course, if you're looking for fast answers to small/simple questions you can try asking our site team via <a>email</a>, these Web comment threads, our Twitter accounts (<a href="http://twitter.com/macosrumors" rel="nofollow">@MacOSRumors</a> or site founder Ryan C. Meader: <a href="http://twitter.com/dalaixerces" rel="nofollow">@dalaixerces</a>) or IM (AIM: MacOSRumors); if you have a more complex high-priority question, consider enlisting the professional services of Xerces Consulting who can give you the benefit of not-for-publication recon as well as our nearly 20 years as some of the leading experts in the Apple/macsector as we as countless other industries.... All that said, the main bottleneck for us right now isn't a lack of interesting dirt to report on -- quite the opposite, and we're well on our way to clearing financial hurdles; what we need most right now is a reliable, skilled team to handle the bulk of the writing workload.

So while I wouldn't be surprised to see a software compatibility layer, and there may be some opportunity to accelerate some types of processing on older GPUs (expect Lattner and the LLVM crew to be working overtime on this), I wouldn't hold out too much hope for great acceleration on the older GPUs.
