So what if DirectX 10 dies? It's proprietary and restricted by Microsoft. OpenGL is absolutely the way to go (in a free implementation such as Mesa 3D) because it is readily extensible and easily patched for performance or otherwise.
The reason DX10 is in "a stranglehold" is because only Microsoft Windows Vista uses it, which is about 5% of the desktop computer market, and MS has locked XP, Mac OS X, Linux and game consoles (except Xbox 360, but that's not a full implementation)
Ubuntu. Linux for human beings.
If you are interested in trying Ubuntu or Linux in general, PM me and I will answer your questions and help you install it if you wish.
