	/** Abstract class defining common features of hardware buffers.
    @remarks
 	    A 'hardware buffer' is any area of memory held outside of core system ram,
	    and in our case refers mostly to video ram, although in theory this class
	    could be used with other memory areas such as sound card memory, custom
	    coprocessor memory etc.
    @par
 	    This reflects the fact that memory held outside of main system RAM must 
	    be interacted with in a more formal fashion in order to promote
	    cooperative and optimal usage of the buffers between the various 
	    processing units which manipulate them.
    @par
 	    This abstract class defines the core interface which is common to all
	    buffers, whether it be vertex buffers, index buffers, texture memory
	    or framebuffer memory etc.
	@par
		Buffers have the ability to be 'shadowed' in system memory, this is because
		the kinds of access allowed on hardware buffers is not always as flexible as
		that allowed for areas of system memory - for example it is often either 
		impossible, or extremely undesirable from a performance standpoint to read from
		a hardware buffer; when writing to hardware buffers, you should also write every
		byte and do it sequentially. In situations where this is too restrictive, 
		it is possible to create a hardware, write-only buffer (the most efficient kind) 
		and to back it with a system memory 'shadow' copy which can be read and updated arbitrarily.
		Ogre handles synchronising this buffer with the real hardware buffer (which should still be
		created with the HBU_DYNAMIC flag if you intend to update it very frequently). Whilst this
		approach does have it's own costs, such as increased memory overhead, these costs can 
		often be outweighed by the performance benefits of using a more hardware efficient buffer.
		You should look for the 'useShadowBuffer' parameter on the creation methods used to create
		the buffer of the type you require (see HardwareBufferManager) to enable this feature.
