DX10 Gaming on XP, Linux and Mac OS X?

Alky has a long way to go before even XP users, much less Mac and Linux users, can easily convert DX10 games for use on their platform of choice, but the fact that the alpha does allegedly work for some folks is promising.

When I first heard of this, I figured it was a scam similar to CherryOS. It seems that a few people have been able to get the alpha to work, but it is far from being a simple process.

If this becomes a reality, it will give people even more of a reason to stay away from Vista. Of course it would be nice on Linux and Mac OS X as well, but there is not even a use for DX10 on Vista right now as is, let alone other OS’.
