I honestly don't see much of an issue. I've tested it with Firefox on a machine that has near identical specs to your #3 (including onboard VPU), and there's barely any scrolling difference between TWS2 and vB Default. The level of slowdown is so minimal I wouldn't have noticed it if I hadn't been flipping back and forth testing it, and it's clearly due to the onboard VPU. If you are bothered by the same level of slowdown that I saw, then I suggest that you should try using one of the other skins. TWS2 works without any noticeable slowdown on pretty much everything else I have tried. It even browses smoothly on an iPad 2 and iPhone 2 (though I highly recommend using one of the mobile skins for all smartphones). I do not see a "huge" difference anywhere on the site. I'm not particularly keen on making TWS2 uglier to improve its speed by a small amount on lower end machines. We already have five other skins that have minimal graphics which can be used by anyone who experiences this issue.
