DirectX 9.1

Will there ever be a final revision of direct x 9 since many ppl still use xp

They revise DirectX 9, like every few months. It's not always made public knowledge, but they are always working on it. You can download updated runtime environments from the Microsoft site.

9.0c has SM3.0 support. There is nothing between SM3.0 and SM4.0 (DX10). What are you waiting for MS to add?

As mentioned above, DX9 is getting regular updates already, but it's still 9.0c level features.

DX10 is the next "DirectX", and it is in Vista.

DX10 is the next "DirectX", and it is in Vista.

...And the absolute last thing you'll ever see them do is give you another reason not to use it.

DX8.1 added new shader models, VS1.1 and PS1.2 - PS1.4, that didn't exist in DX8.0.
