Ok. I vote definitely FOR a fullscreen mode. This is a must, if J3D really plans
to become a standard 3D-plattform.
If i develop an application (it doesn't have to be a game), eg. something with
an HMD, or for the dreamcast console with Windows CE it is necessary to switch
to fullscreen mode. By the way, is there a port of J3D to Windows CE?
