Mikroschoft heeft versie DirectX6.1 nu officieel gereleased. De binaries waren al eerder 'per ongeluk' op een paar sites verschenen. Hier wat bullshit uit de PR:
Microsoft Corp. (Nasdaq: MSFT - news) today announced shipment of version 6.1 of the Microsoft® DirectX® Software Development Kit (SDK), including the first public release of the widely heralded Microsoft DirectMusic(TM) API as well as native support for the Intel Pentium III processor family.A mature and comprehensive set of system services in the Windows® operating system, DirectX unlocks the power of Windows-equipped multimedia PCs by providing software developers with transparent access to a wide range of peripherals, including graphics cards, audio adapters and input devices. DirectX was introduced in 1995 and is now a recognized standard for multimedia application development.
``With DirectX 6.1, we continue in our commitment to deliver industry-leading technologies to Windows-based application developers and end users,'' said Kevin Bachus, product manager of DirectX at Microsoft. ``The newest member of the DirectX family, DirectMusic, will radically change the way consumers and developers perceive music on the personal computer.''
