I was just thinking today (and yes, I am capable of thinking), since video cards are made to support DirectX standards, whether M$ has a stranglehold over video cards made for the i386? Or is it the other way round (ie video card companies control what M$ puts into DirectX)? Either way, it looks to me that users of OS's other than Windows are really losing out here because not all companies can afford to port (or hire someone to port) their games. I was just wondering what you guys thought.
