From what I hear Windows "Longhorn" will be a GUI layed on top of dx9 which is one of the reasons Nvidia came out with such inexpensive dx9 cards.

Christmas? Are you CrAzY?? Maybe I should wait 2 years later so that I can snag a ATI card for $150 that is 10x faster than a 9800. I wonder if ATI will still be alive by then... Microsoft is gonna take over noooooo......
