    I do not think it matters.

    DX10 was pretty much a bust.... most developers are still focusing on DX9... since its the most viable.

    as soon as DX11 GPUs appear. which will take a while. as Gophn noted, DX9 is still the de facto industry standard, and i doubt DX11 will change much about that.

    Sounds about right for ATI's RV870 GPU but I'd say early summer is when Nvidia's 300 series will be ready for purchase.

    As soon as XP is no longer a natively supported OS.

    DX9 will only die when the Xbox360 is no longer leading gaming platform (for developers)
    so mabye 4-5years

    So? You can still make games for DX11 and support DX9... DX is backwards compatible
