I finally got around to making a few quick screen grabs and movies of the vertex array stuff. The images are all of the venerable venus.obj that we've no doubt seen a million times.
Check them out here: http://taproot.dyndns.org/~cgc/downloads/images/
The movie shows the very rough, early version of vertex_combine doing it's magic on two .obj models.

The clips are all the same, but in divx(avi), mpeg4 and sorenson formats. I have no idea who has what players so hopefully one of them will play. (The divx looks like total ass compared to the others. Why do people rave about it?)
