The reason I had to open this again was because the mod shantanu certainly seems to not like things against windows and has closed the thread without providing an oppurtunity to prove how much the windows fanboys are wrong about the issue and me!
Well it turns out that Windows Fanboys never seem to open their eyes and look at things rather take every word literally.
@gx, shantanu and pillainp, you guys just proved as to how much you can understand the whole fact about what this really means rather than what technology they have migrated to! lol.. can't believe this, with their own stupid logic, they blame me for not understanding what this all means.. lol.. how sad.
That was a rumor, this is not a rumor! As simple as that if you have a problem understanding what that meant!
See, this is the whole point, firstly you assume that I'm a linboy when I support OSS and don't use linux at the moment rather using WinXP! How much more could an assumption be sadder!
And secondly your assumption that I don't know anything which again is sadly wrong because you fail to look at what this implies!
If you are not sure, let me make it clear, I know what OpenAL is and I know how much better it is and kids like you don't need to give me a lecture on that because the whole point is about MS's decision to drop the bomb at users who already have DirectSound Compatible hardware which will not work with this standard as it's simply not compatible and the point is that Souncd card developers don't yet have drivers which are compatible with this API!! In short, you are left without proper sound reproduction as the sofware emulation is only able to output stereo sound as their are no OpenAL drivers for the hardware that lets your output the sound in surround sound!
So in short, regardless of which technology is better, at the momemt you are left with no surround sound! Because there are no drivers yet for any hardware that can output sound in surround sound! Who cares what technology is being used? If the end user can't get 3D sound, what is the whole point about downgrading to Vista?
Now, before you pathetically assume anything about me not know what I'm talking about, look at what I said implies to the end user which is noting but NO SURROUND SOUND!
And @shantanu, I can't believe the way you have been acting about these threads that highlight a flaw about Windows!
The point about the thread was not to compare the technologies that have been used but to get the bottom line straight that for the END USER, there is no SURROUND SOUND!! as of now atleast till MS comes out with drivers that can really work to emulate the surround sound of the games and movies that the End user has already paid for. In short, the End users who had paid for getting games and movies and sound cards that help surround sound using Direct Sound are left stranded where there investment is gone for the dogs!
The end user bought content which used to support MS's very own DirectSound standard and now, without warning, they withdraw this so that existing hardware manufacturers atleast have the time to develop the drivers!
This is the case that we have seen with Vista all the way, where they have come out with something that doesn't have proper driver support because they withdrew support to almost lot of existing technology just like that already being used and not giving enough time for hardware manufacturers to develop their drivers so as to be compatible with the new sofware, but alas, MS wants every to use what they think is right rather than let people use what they already have!
@gx and pillai, go get a life before you falsely accuse someone of not knowing something because of your ignorance to understand the issue.
I'm sure I'm going to get banned for this because of the simple fact that MS Fanboys just don't like the truth hitting them face on!
And the best part is, they accuse everyone else of being stupid and not knowing anything when they themselves cannot see what this all implies because of the simple fact that they are FANBOYS!
@gx, stop acting like you know everything and that we all are fools and have know knowledge about MS! Your stupid assumptions just point to fact that you are just a kid who hasn't learnt 'respect' which I been asking you do do from the past 1 month. And seriously, if you think that MS has sorted out this problem, please tell me how and how many hardware manufactures have been able to get drivers working with the new API? Or for the love of GOD accept the fact that this is a problem and that it has not yet been fixed by MS! rather than calling someone else stupid!
