Well, actually ... to delve into the realm of stupidity and ignorance that permeates my current locale ... most people here think:

Window$ = Computer

Really ... I'm not fucking kidding ... which is kinda sad :( ... :fu: stupid, ignorant people, they deserve everything they get.

--- Quote from: Xeniczone ---  Yeh but see the problem with that is directx is a all in one so in programming you just need to know direct x. Open gl is the graphics core audio is the audio etc. but that isn't all in one so you need to know each indiviual thing.

I'm sure DirectX has a lot of differences between the sections.  You wouldn't use a video function to use audio, would you?


--- Quote from: Xeniczone ---It isn't a matter of the hardware working in the mac the problem come to the software. Drivers and software that are required to run the hardware. Like example I have a ati radion 9200se unsupported by mac because there is no drivers for it. and then my ATI TV WONDER VE unsupported by mac because no drivers for it. Out of frustration i took my dvd decoder out of my p2 to see if I could get that g3 to at least play dvds. I was sure it would work because it didn't need drivers to work just a dvd software well i couldn't find the cable to link the decoder the the ati rage 128.

Which G3 Mac is this?  Most are capable of watching DVDs via accelleration provided by the video drivers.  The Rage 128 is included.  (And, Macs need different video cards because they need a different video BIOS.)

Xeniczone:
g3 powermac 350mhz

WMD:
Hmm.  With OS X's bundled DVD app, you should be able to watch DVDs fine with a G3/350 and a Rage 128.  What version of it do you have?  Version 3.0+ is required to work in the G3.

Lead Head:
I could have sworn that the older macs used a different signaling system with the AGP port or something, so x86 compatible cards couldnt work
