What's a point for remove a working DX9 render?! I have now a DX10 card (9800GT from 2008), but what people with DX9-cards will do?
Depreciation, cause devs move to greener pastures...
[s]well, there will always be people who go back to old games to learn new stuff...[/s]
The same reason why we need a wrapper to play glide games on modern systems. Or Wine, or....(console emulators count, given all the legal issues?)
My vid card only supports DX10 max. But I hope to eek out a bit of performance till I can make the jump to my own Linux environment.
Once DX11 kicks in, expect a drop in TM2 activity from me till I can make the transition.

To go with XFCE? Are you saying you're running Linux?
(In which case, kinda off-topic, but try pcmanfm
)
Well, I've been trying to move to Linux for about 2 years now. (Since M$ is killed off XP)
I have 1 HDD that's my testbed to make my own Linux isos for my own use.
Based off Ubuntu,
replace unity with Xfce + that 9x-like XFWM theme,
replace g_music with VLC (though thinking of replacing that with SM Player instead)
Blender is a must-have package.
Mousepad instead of gedit,
Firefox over Chrome, etc...
I've read about PCmanfm, haven't tried that package yet.
Ideally I'd like to use ReactOS explorer with Linux.... but considering how ReactOS is targeted as a Windows explorer.exe replacement...and based on the search engine results I've gone through so far, my odds of using it as a Linux file manager replacement seems slim.
