OpenGL 3.0 Released, Developers Furious 643
ikol writes "After over a year of delays, the OpenGL ARB (part of the Khronos industry group) today released the long-awaited spec for OpenGL 3.0 as part of the SIGGRAPH 2008 proceedings. Unfortunately it turns out not to be the major rewrite that was promised to developers. The developer community is generally furious, with many game developers intending to jump ship to DX10. Is this the end of cross-platform 3d on the cutting edge?"

What do you means DirectX10 isn't cross platform? It runs in all six versions of Windows Vista!
Shh! Don't let the MS devs hear that! They'll decide that the next version of windows should only have 3D capability on the expensive versions!

Jesus Christ, why don't you just change your last name to match your company's and be done with it? Do they own you? Do you feel the need to make a similar disclaimer every time you take a dump?
Excuse me, folks! I just wanted to let everyone else in the bathroom know that this stink is not the fault of my employer! My employer does not necessarily have as much gas as I do!
Are you worried that your masters will punish you? If so, I suggest that you reconsider your loyalties.

Unfortunatly once it hits version 3.14.159 it comes full circle, starting back at the beginning.

That's right, WINE is not an emulator. It just, uh, "approximates" the Win32 libs.
"Approximates?" No, that's not right. Simulates? Imitates? Hmm... if only there was a word for something that attempts to perform a task in an identical way to something else.
