        Final. The final is out it's build 400 but Microsoft will not OFFICIAL release it until 1200am saturday. It's kinda like how the release of ME. ME came out MONTHS before the retail.

          Hi DosFreak,

          Is the DX80 just for WinME or it can be used with Win98 too?

          Thanks.

              Yes it can be used on 98SE too. 95,98,ME they are all the same OS.

              Refer to Matrox Gaming post for the REAL (aka Official) links to Directx.
