images/news/microsoft.jpgUnlike DirectX 9, the DirectX 10 will not have a more than four year lifespan as Microsoft Corp. plans to introduce features of DirectX 11 application programming interface at the forthcoming XNA gamefest conference that takes place next week in Seattle, Washington. Moreover, ATI, graphics product group of AMD, and Nvidia Corp. also plan to discuss certain Direct3D 11 features at upcoming conferences.

Microsoft is going to host four sessions dedicated to Direct3D 11 application programming interface (API), according to agenda of XNA conference. The world’s largest software maker plans to introduce the Direct3D 11 graphics pipeline, unveil details about D3D 11 Tessellation capability, new type of shaders called Compute Shader as well as high level shader language 5.0.

Don't freaking cross me! Microsoft wants to "get the appropriate economic return for our shareholders from our innovation," A few of my more memorable quotes: "I think it would be absolutely reckless and irresponsible for anyone to try and break up Microsoft." "There's no substitute for innovation, of course, but innovation is no substitute for being in touch, either." "What we've gone through in the last several years has caused some people to question 'Can we trust Microsoft?" "I like to tell people that all of our products and business will go through three phases. There's vision, patience, and execution." "Google is an illusion" "I don't know what a monopoly is until somebody tells me." "We don't have a monopoly. We have market share. There's a difference."
