Directx 8.1 Final (at least for Win2k) is on Microsoft .... download away

[darqice]

For any of you that are (like me) suspicious of all those leaked versions, its finally official at least for win2k users.

dx8.1 for win2k

Note the version of DirectX 8.1 that comes with XP has been referred to by MS as the final "XP version" and not the final version of DX8.1.

Here are the version numbers...

MS DOWNLOAD: 4.08.01.0881
XP VERSION #: 4.08.01.0810

As far as 98/me, i don't see it on MS site yet but it should be up soon

Holy cow, I just dl'ed that file in like 3 seconds. I just had a chance to catch a glimpse of the speed from Getright and it said DL speed was 1.87MB/s!!!!

The MS link worked fine for me when using Getright. Regular IE save target as.. didn't though.
