If they do that then I can see Valve taking a massive OS market share with SteamOS. I honestly don't think even Microsoft are that stupid but even so I can see the press release now...

They already did it with the latest version, 11.1 or 11.2, whichever it was

Those are the shipped versions, 11 with win7, 11.1 with win8 and 11.2 with win8.1

Dx12 is suspected to be included in windows 9 as it wont be out till 2015.

The issue they have is that AMD are working on Mantel and from what I understand developers are finding it easier to work with and can port easier as well.

Google Mantel and you get a mix of results on the first page.. Either it's going to revolutionize the world or suck mightily. Direcx has been driving gaming for years.
