you''ve never heard of glide ???, what cave have you been living in.

3DFX is the KING!!! and always shall be

People who began game development in the last six months would never have heard of Glide.

More importantly, if you want to get speed out of an old system with an old video card that doesn''t really support OpenGL or Direct3D very well, you usually have to write a software 2D engine. This usually uses DX or GDI to handle page flipping, and everything else you write yourself, like we used to in the old days.
