Uhh. guys... openGL will be fully supported in Vista.. there was a major stink about 1 year ago about "need to do OpenGL via directX Microsoft emulator"... but that was over a year ago! should check out opengl.org to get the real information. Moreover, even that one year ago it was this: if an application is windowed and wants Aero active, then it must go thorugh Microsoft's openGL emulator, but that is no longer true either... by the time Vista comes out, IHV will have full OpenGL drivers ready to go (note: even a year ago full screen openGL applications were not affected at all!) Tom's hardware really messed up on this article, it would be a good idea if they did some real fact checking..
