Any particuliar reason we should jump right now and install Direct X 9.0?

More dope: the first DX9.0a upgrade (the one that MS yanked) was incompatible with ATI Catalyst 3.1 drivers...altho not incom. with the 3.2s. The one that's up now is okey-dokey with both (but I doubt that it was checked with Omega's Radeon drivers). Just so's you know.

Actually, that ATI 3.1 incompatibility rumor is a hoax.
