On the Subject of OpenGL 2.0
zendal writes "The danger with pixel shaders and vertex shaders is that there is no standard for programmability of graphics hardware. A schism has formed within DirectX between the competing demands of GPU makers Nvidia and ATI. Noted analyst Jon Peddie gives THG an exclusive first look at a White Paper on how OpenGL 2.0 is trying to bring stability and open standards to programmable graphics and GPUs."
The fact alone that it is more neutral to what OS you use makes it much better that DirectX. I really hope those VB developers get an easy way to use OpenGL instead of DirectX.
