With the upcoming OpenGL 2.0 standard, things are going to change. Lots 
of new features come. But the main reason why I think yo should use 
OpenGL, is because it is cross-platform. No wonder why M$ removed 
themselves from the OpenGL consortium - they want developers to use D3D, 
so that way they will be limited to Windows only.
And of course this "used by many many people" is a platitude. OpenGL is 
also "used by many many people".
