Fortunately, Linus wrote Linux, MetroLink ported OpenGL, and : I ported a $10,000 molecular modelling package in less than two weeks. Why can't your OpenGL app be ported to WinNT? OpenGL for WinNT has been available for quite a while. I saw LOTS of Unix ports running under WinNT at SigGraph '95. Were you unaware of OpenGL for WinNT or is your app's computational code so mixed up with your OS interface that the port is not worth the effort?
