Unfortunately it seems our story yesterday is not entirely true. DirectX 9.L will be for real but it will be a modified version of the old 9.0c for Vista and you know what that means - you want DX 10 games you gotta buy Windows Vista. I apologize for getting your hopes up in the first place. Microsoft was almost 'human' for a day but that's all gone now. Like it or not, Vista is still on the 'must have' list (especially for gamers). Mo money...
