Kuch wonders how you tell if Quartz Extreme is in use. Why you use Quartz Extreme Check of course.

My understanding is that the quickest way to tell if Quartz Extreme is running is to pop in a DVD and put a window from another ap over it. When that second ap loses focus, you should be able to see the movie playing through the semi-transparent title bar.
Using a similar technique, I found that AthenaIRC at 50% transparency goes well with Absolutely Fabulous Season 3, but not so well with Time Bandits.
But this is just something I read online, and I never tried to see what happens when you do the above without Quartz Extreme.

That sounds way easier than downloading an app and running it ;-)
