shouldn't a simplified version of Blender not be called Blonder !?

From what I have read, the problem is with AMD not Blender. But.... Blender have received a copy of the latest beta drivers from AMD and it "almost" works. AMD seem to be working on it now.

Ton is the main man when it comes to Blender related stuff. Blender blender.org is a free GPL 3d animation package that rivals the capabilities of Maya & Max. It can be used to make awesome animations like bigbuckbunny.org. Ton is currently trying to raise money for full feature length animation gooseberry.blender.org

Blender has single handily reshaped the 3D software market, the number and popularity of medium level tools bellow $250 has dropped massively in the last decade.

Do you see this as a positive or as a necessary consequence to Blenders success.

If you couldn't call Blender "Blender" for what ever reason what would have called it?
