VBO's If you're just drawing a static object - no I don't think VBO's are faster, they might actually be slower. I'm not sure nested display lists are supported with good performance on modern drivers. Stick with display lists if they work well...

VBO's VBOs are more powerful, since they can be combined and modified. For example, a vbo with position data can be used by itself during a depth pass and together with another vbo that contains normals and tex coords when doing the actual rendering. ...

Real-time clouds rendering Those are really impressive! Some nitpicking though: the edges of the clouds seem too sharp and also too dark in some places. Would it be possible to apply an alpha blend to the edges? (The "Stratocumulus top"-image actually seem to have this.) ...
