Thanks again everyone.

I''m going to buy that book as soon as I can. The internet book must be first edition, it has a different cover than the cover of the second edition.

I agree that too many books start with the Win32 stuff, but I ehar the publishes make authors do it in order to target the book at beginners. I have already learned the Win32 stuff and done a little OpenGL, but I may be doing this as part of an internship in not too long and would like to know how all the stuff works more than just an online tutorial that just says how to do something, not the theory behind it.
