Ok, after looking at the first statistics, what do you guys think? Vista and OS-x jumps out for me, Apple has been pushing to get their os into gaming a bit more and I am personally speculating on a handheld I-gaming device by Apple in the near future. Looking at the fact that OS-X is suddenly supported strengthens my theory that they are discussing something No support for Xp will probably mean it will be DX 10 only.
