Looks awesome. But it wud be a while before we begin to see games that utilize DX11 and by that time ATI 5870 wud become an old news.

Does DX11 offer any real advantage in day to day uses (not gaming)?

No wonder it was a flop.
Vista is crap and they restricted DX10 to vista to force people buy their crap.
It backfired two times


Where is the difference of tessellation and bump mapping ?

The problem with Win7 is that it has to run a VM to "play" XP programs.
Means a huge memory waste (400+mb ?).

It still only supports 3.5gig memory on 32 bit -> you need 64bit Win 7
And that probably is not the most compatible one you get use
