there is quite a lot of people still using xp tbh, yes win 7 is spreading fast, but its mainly through more hardcore gamers or devs, your domestic person who just plays once in a while isnt gonna most likely update unless he buys a new computer, not to mention as you said the latest cards support dx10 and 11 and ect, but the machine im running atm can only have an agp card, and there is only like 1 or 2 cards on the market with agp for dx10 and they cost way more than i am willing to pay, i know i need a new pc, but needing to support my self i cant really afford it now, not that im complaining or anything but there is bound to be other people with a situation like mine, cos if i buy a new pc im gonna buy a brand new one and that needs money. So unless the engine can go up and down between the dx versions and not be stuck up to 10 or 11 i wouldn't take that step till winxp becomes officially outdated. This is the same reasoning why only like 1 or 2 games currently in the market support only dx10+
