I''ve heard that SGI has a OpenGL for Windows, too. So what is the difference between the Microsoft OpenGL (the one come with Win98/NT) and the SGI OpenGL. Thanks,
I didn''t know that such Opengl drivers exist...

But the SGI driver would probably be better :-)))

I think there might still be implementations around, but SGI no longer promotes OpenGL in any manner unacceptable to Microsoft, so the drivers are unsupported.

They''re a damn sight faster than the MS drivers in software mode...

They do not support wgl functions (I could do without that, but now I can''t).

Anybody has some performance comparison between the two in software mode ?
