3dfx makes Glide open-source! -- 3:34 pm CST, Update by The Master

Huge news from 3dfx, who finally caved and made the proprietary Glide graphics API! WOW! HUGE news. And it's about time too. If you're a linux junkie, check 3dfx's linux Glide site.

A.T. Hun comments: I think you can partially thank Creative for this too. Their Unified driver threatened to embroil 3dfx in a lawsuit they neither needed nor wanted. The long and the short? Maybe there IS hope for 3dfx after all!
