You also need some deep pockets to support that habit.... real opengl
capable cards still cost.  Diamond Multimedia do have some opengl
cards but the entry price is still steep compared to a normal video
card.

Hmmm there were rumours of the glide library being ported but still
that does not make the 3Dfx cards opengl - AFAIK their cards are
simply accelerating the shading and texture mapping, basically the
bits a game uses the most.  If you are looking at a 3Dfx card then
hang out for the VooDoo2 if you can wait, much faster than the VooDoo.
