Also, to add to the 3D AA explanations: The "old" AA systems use the anti-aliasing on the whole picture, thus using a lot of effort to smoothen things that don't need it. The never systems from ATI and NVIDIA(?) can find the places that need anti-aliasing in one frame and then use the AA in only those parts of the frame.
