Books are still being published on the subject of OpenGL on Windows; I
think it's doing fine. Games are still coming out that use OpenGL as
well.
There is a big to-do going on regarding Vista, per
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenGL#Future_in_Microsoft_Windows, but I
suspect that Microsoft will back down very quickly when users begin to
view their decision as degrading the performance of *old* OpenGL games,
never mind new ones.
