My intentions are to make a game for the IOS....

Alright well this is my ULTIMATE GOAL! To make a game for the IOS (I already have it in mind)Now I have no knowledge of game development as a whole.... My biggest question is the following. I started learning how to manipulate DirectX using C++ I learned a couple of things. As it stands I only own a PC for programming. But you need a MAC for Ios development but they are alternatives.... Overall what I'm asking is should I continue with Direct X learning or should I use the alternative SDK's that are on windows for the the development? I mean.. Here is what I have planned.Option 1- Continue using direct x and learn how to develop games for windows and make the game I have in mind for windows (don't know if this is easier or whatever)Option 2- Go to IOS where it might be more likely to sell or something and use the SDK's on windows then get borrow my dads mac and finish up the job or something.Overall what do you guys recommend? I mean are the sales for iOS worth it or what? Should I just stick with Windows? I mean if I make the game could I put it on steam and sell it for $5 would it sell enough? I'm just overall very confused....

So how different is OpenGL and OPENGL ES2.0?

OpenGl 4.1 is bridged to OpenGL ES 2.0 via a compatibility extension. This means that you can develop OpenGL ES applications for both desktop and mobile, without changes to the actual OpenGL portion of your code.
