We don't really have games that utilize DX10.  Note I said utilize not use.  There are many special things written for DX10 only that just aren't even used yet.  I really don't see the point in DX11 considering this and the fact only 1 graphics card maker has the stuff already inside for DX11.  That being a tesselator and the clocks to render out that many polies outside a workstation card.

Microsoft said games won't even utilise 10.1 for about 3-5 years if at all, so how long do they expect 11 to be out 2020? lol

There was a big gap (five years) between DirectX 9 and 10. The longevity of DirectX 9 is a major reason why the DirectX 10 shift is not quick. Before DirectX 9 Microsoft released updates about every year.

lol atleast we can start making our computers future proof, by buying video cards that support DX11!!!!!

Also developers managed to get a lot more out of dx9 than they ever expected to
