According to Tomshardware dot com VISTA does NOT support OpenGL.

he's wrong..

here's the facts : Vista supports upto OpenGL 1.1. As with XP, you need the drivers from your GFX card maker to go higher to 2+. (XP only went to 1.1 as well).

Microsoft is not stopping anyone using OpenGL, they just don't supply it themselves and leave it to firms like ATI and Nvidia.

That's a relief, then.
