Thanks Steve @ HardOCP
Are you ready for this? A company named TransGaming Technologies has just launched something called SwiftShader which is a software-based rendering product that enables the use of 3D graphics (games, applications, etc.) without a dedicated graphics card. What the?!? All this time ATi and NVIDI have been worried about each other and along comes a VGA giant killer from the software realm? Well, maybe not, but it sure sounds pretty cool. Here is a quote from the site, go check it out.
"SwiftShader empowers developers and publishers by allowing graphics-intensive titles to run on older PCs, expanding the potential buying market size for games and applications. SwiftShader also provides new opportunities for operating system and embedded system developers to bring high-performance 3D graphics to less powerful hardware and devices. TransGaming has applied its industry-leading portability experience to the development of SwiftShader, ensuring the code can be adapted to function on numerous platforms and devices."
