      Today there is no good way of locking the framerate. This is because all the possible ways
      of locking the update rate of an animation depends on System.currentTimeMillis() wich is
      not working properly on NT and Win95. (See bugreport 4236825)

      There should really be a way to lock the framerate or synchronize with the raster beam
      or something.... otherwise the Java 2 platform is useless for multimedia programming!!!!
