"DirectX 10 would not work with XP, and that was fine and dandy. It was an honest technical reason why you could not backport DX10 to XP without a major rip and replace operation. Microsoft wasn't going to bend on this one at all." More here.

This is going offtopic but...
Are you sure? I mean, they have Gaming Olympics and Cyber Athletes (that made me laugh harder than I have ever done before) nowadays and gaming is serious, or at least big, business.
Cyber Athlete...seriously...there's nothing I can say that could possibly make those two words any more hilarious than they already are.
Ok, I'm being sarcastic, sue me, but this whole gaming "lifestyle" is just really annoying me. Playing computer games is even less of a sport than chess is.
Then again, poker is apparently a "sport" these days so what do i know.

More correctly, ESPN can turn anything into a damn sport these days - hence the reason you'll never see my watch ESPN - Rugby, Soccer, Cricket, they're sports - they require some physical and/or metal prowess - but overweight V-Drinking gamers as sports men? dear god.
