I may have been misled, but I was under the impression that win2k has as
good OpenGL support as WinNT, which is better than that of Win98. In any
case, even if that is not true, I have been using the OpenGL version of
Java3D for quite some time now, with now problems. As far as speed is
conserned, using a Riva TNT2 with Detonator 3.18 drivers for both 98 and 2k
gave me about the same frames per second count.
