They don't care about what brand HD is in their computer, or even if it's Intel or AMD... but they will know all about WINDOWS 7. Perhaps you, yourself don't know all there is, or the experience Microsoft is going to try and sell the world on. But Win7 is going to be marketed as an intergil part of our daily lives. Movies, music, appliance, social networks, etc.. and GRAPHICS is what the driving force behind all this "user freindly" experience.

Microsoft wants to crush Mac, because Microsoft is the PC. Indirectly, Microsoft is pushing DX11... open your eyes!



Microsoft will make it known, to have the FULL Windows 7 experience, they will need a fully compliant computer (ie: video card), so new hardware & the Dx11 logo will play a prominent role in Microsoft attempt to move the PC forward... coincidentally, Microsoft has already said that Windows 7 will be the heaviest marketed OS in their history!

MS will sell people on the new user experience, & power of Win7, etc.... But, also on how a new computer is cheap and will take advantage of Window 7. Intel will also be being selling us a new user's experience this shopping season... as they try to market their Intel inside campaign. Nvidia will be the only player not advertising a new users experience.

DX11's momentum is due to Windows 7's. Vista being a bad OS was overhyped and Windows 7 being a good OS has been (over)hyped to epic proportions. The regular, every-day Joe knows about Windows 7. My father asked me if he needed it and if all his old files would work with it the other day. If he knows, the most computer illiterate human being in the Western world must know about it. MS's intertia with this product is simply unstoppable. Unlike DX10, we will see DX11 dominate.
