DirectX 10 on platforms other than Vista

Read about this in a magazine Linux Format, it currently only aims for XP support but is talking about Linux and OS X versions. See the site for Falling Leaf System a company set by the developer.

Interesting - there has been changes to the driver model (which, with time, might bring some improvement, but which for now only makes you lose a few fps). I've always claimed that there wasn't any real good reason why you couldn't have DX10 on XP though, and this might just end up being the proof :)
