Thanks to stmok:

A company called "Falling Leaf Systems" is working on providing DirectX 10 support for Windows XP.

According to their blog...
They have provided a "taste" to whet your appetite.

What do you folks think?

I thought Microsoft was going to release a final version of directx 9 for XP which would emulate some of the effects of directx 10 or did they scrap that idea?

yeah it was called Directx 9L, then I read this! Here

I found an article that apparently says that Microsoft says they admit Vista is a joke and that its classed as MEII, so if this is true, maybe Microsoft will decide to release it on XP afterall.

I'd be keen for that link if you have it handy

Wow nice find! Xp all the way for me, I'm just crossing my fingers something will happen with being able to play DX10 games on XP somehow.
