Trying to decide whether to spend 400-500 on a xt 1950 xtx 512mb or go with a middle range one ilke xt 1900 pro 256 mb ($200) and wait to upgrade to a dx10 card. Opinions?

I'll go buy a console at that point, and it probably won't be an x box. They're already messing it up enough with all the probable retardation in vista-no need to compound the errors by exclusively tying the vista albatross around the neck of dx10.
So yes, I'm anticipating dx10. I'm anticipating that it will cause me to give microsoft the finger.

If you want to jump up and down about vista that's fine, but don't expect me to. It would also be good to not immediately assume that anyone not delirious with joy at vista is worried about DRM. There are other quite legal and worthwhile reasons to not be thrilled.
