O.P. DirectX 10.1
I don't know how many of you keep up with the news, but it turns out that the next incremental update of DirectX 10 - DirectX 10.1 - to be included in Vista SP1 will not be supported by DirectX 10 hardware.
Basically what this means is that if you've bought a new DirectX 10 card, it's pretty much obsolete already.
But fear not, because DirectX 10.1 isn't a massive upgrade - it adds very few new features, and of course, like all previous DirectX upgrades, previously supported features will still work with your card.
I still think it's a rather stupid thing for Microsoft to do, though.
