Realtime graphics rendering is what a lot of games and such do, where it's 
calculating where stuff is and should be on the fly and displays it then 
and there.

Non realtime rendering is when the computer crunches all the numbers of the 
rendering and saves it in a format that can be read by a player of some 
sort. Varies by type, but it could do it into a Quicktime mov or fli or 
something along those lines.

Back in the day, before computers got tremendously powerful, most people 
were doing non-realtime because it took time to calculate all the stuff. 
These days, though, even a $400 computer can do real-time pretty well.
