These come down about every other month. I have no idea what is updated but this time my update was 3.2 MB. Most of the time it is in KBs. Anyway, use the web installer to keep your DirectX install uptodate...talker.

Since DX10 will not be fully backward compatible to older OS, I would think that these sorts of updates will be around for a while longer. The game and OS markets will reach a leverage point sometime in the future when it will be DX10/Vista or nothing (that may not be literal but close). At that point we will see the end of support for that "old, outdated DX9"...talker.

Such is life when owning a PC, personally I can't wait for DX 10 (aka I mean to get Vista)
