Sorry for the thread-jack, but just to take your minds off it:

Well, who knows? Better stability, better security is not a bad thing, and voice recognition for word imho rocks!

But the main fact that DX10 is not backwards-compatible with DX9 ticks me off. ...or is that the other way around?



AFAIK, it will be like the dx8-dx9 change.
Vista will run on dx9-compatible cards.
Programs will run on dx9-cards.
However, the newest games may use dx10 - and then a new crop of dx10-compatible cards will come out.

Build up dart boards that look have price and time on them:

$250 $300 $400 $450 $500

and use it to figure out what you're going to pay for them :)

Or

June July Aug...Dec

to figure out when you're going to get them :)

Personally I'm looking at the finance pages in the newspapers to watch the $ weakening against the pound

Boring I know but as the $ falls it becomes cheaper and cheaper for me to import

UK prices will all be rip offs sadly.
