Sorry, that was quite an ambiguous statement. What I meant was that technically it *should* make no difference which one you are using, as though to say "in a world where all was perfect, java3d would be java3d and the underlying api would be an irrelevance." Of course, what I appeared to be saying which is that it *does* make no difference which you use, which is clearly not the case.

Not correct. There are specific known differences between the two due to differences in the rendering APIs.
