Reply: (edit)DX10 will debut with Windows Vista. AFAIK, DX10 is not & will not be compatible with WinXP, so if you're sticking with XP, DX10 is a 'non-issue'

The Enquirer has admitted they were wrong on that: http://www.theinquirer.net/default.... DX9L is DirectX9 for Vista (L = Legacy). There are no current plans to release DirectX 10 for XP. Michael J

Reply: (edit)Well, one post I read said L stood for Legacy. The Enquirer article states it stands for Longhorn. No matter though. Michael J
