3dfx & OpenGL

Odd. That Yahoo article forgot to list Nvidia.

I have the same opinion today i did back when that POR was released.

The openGL ARB is high, way fucking high. 3dfx one of the first to support them? More like one of the last. they triesd to be a glide only company and were it not for one John carmack standing his ground on opneGL, they would have been. Then it took them what 3 product releses later to get a FULL openGL ICD? Meanwhile rendition, nvidia, ATI, and Intel beat them to true OpenGL support leaving them batteling it out for half ass support with Trident.

Yup, someone was smoking bannana peels when they wrote that press release up. It should have looked more like

3dfx is finally serious about dropping glide and supporting OpenGL for moth professinal 3D workstations and gaming. ANd now that they are willing to actually support openGL like they should havem we are going to let them in.

Wasn't 3dfx started by ex-SGI guys anyway? It is kinda ironic that they used to work at the company that basically developed OpenGL and yet their drivers suck so much anus.

Nvidia: Oops! Our drivers got leaked again! Please dont download them!

Llama #1: Quake3 crashes when I load it on my P3-700!

Llama #2: Photoshop wont work right in 800x600 resolution!

*Nvidia writes stuff down on the things-to-fix list.

Nvidia: Fix those bugs and prepare the next leak! BW'HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
