Microsoft has officially confirmed DirectX 11, during Gamefest 2008 which was held in Seattle.
Summary:
DirectX 11 will be Windows Vista/future versions only
new shader technology that begins to allow developers to position GPUs
as more general-purpose parallel processors, rather than being
dedicated solely to graphics processing
better multi-threading capabilities
hardware-based tesselation
totally compatible with DX10. There's not that 9/10 discontinuity Microsoft created before
