There are some performance tweaks, support for anti-aliased render targets, some DirectPlay fixes, and a Managed DirectX security fix. For developers there’s some new D3DX functionality, otherwise it looks pretty much the same. If you’re not a developer and you already have DirectX 9 installed, you probably don’t need to worry about this update unless you’re told you need it by a hardware vendor. You can get it here.

I Was Ask To Download DirectX 9.0 For A Computre Game To Work Right On My Computer. So That’s Why I’m Here Now, To Down Load It Into My Computer. Thank You.
Stuart,actually Ruby methods can be paessd any number of lambdas: foo = proc {|a| } bar = proc {|b| } doSomething(foo, bar)( proc is even aliased to lambda )The form: doSomething {|c| } is syntactical sugar on the outer side of doSomething for when you need just one lambda, and enables some syntactical sugar on the inner side: it lets you pass control and data to the block with yield x instead of block.call(x) .I got interested in Lisp (and eventually fell in love with it) while programming in Ruby. I really hope the two communities will be friendly to each other because they have so much in common.
You can get it on Microsoft’s site
