Do u think glide and opengl are the same thing? here it seems u think opengl was what 3dfx was banking on...  These were your OWN words man.. Maybe u meant Glide...

Ban me from these forums just shows you can\'t handle yourself as a admin. This is a debate. It\'s nothing personal. Although you\'re trying to make it so.

is the word "fad" not in the oz language?

you looked up API, go look up what a fad is

here, im bored

A fashion that is taken up with great enthusiasm for a brief period of time; a craze

3dfx figured that since they had a superior implementation of Glide, they weren\'t concerned when openGL came out.

why do you think nvidia made such a big deal out of Cg months ago?

this IS NOT a debate.  this is me making a comment, and you taking it out of context merely in an attempt to frustrate me.  you do it all the time.  read back thru the thread, and you will see what you do.  even two other people stated that you were doing it

Fad = the IN thing.  

Why would a company rely on something they didn\'t even develope, when they have there own type of API.  Clearly any company would rely on there own technology above another companys.  That\'s all i\'m saying. Opengl is still popular. If they relied on it they would still be around. (only if they didn\'t screw up with other companys)

Ps.. i didn\'t do a friggin google search on API. I\'ve been playing around with DirectX SDKs for quite some time..




AHHHH

Now i\'m understanding you.
Sorry my bad.. I was thinking you were saying they thought opengl would be the fad forever and develope for it... Like d3d is now. Not understanding you were saying it in a way it that they thought it would die out..

we\'re done with this conversation

your babbling incoherantly now
