DirectX9 - For More Than Just Gamers?

Xev writes "HEXUS.net are showing a review of a new product called 3DEdit. This uses the DirectX 9 3D rendering engine; 3D transitions; DirectX 9 Shader-based filters, in order to give you a powerful home DV editing suite. This proves a lot more value to me as a Video editor than a card which just lets me play the latest games. Perhaps there is more use for these cards even at a consumer level?"

    This along with there/their (no-one even seems to know of the existance of they're) really gets me; enough that I wrote an entire page of rants about it, and I have sucky English! (for a native speaker)

    I understand thoe(w) and teh and similar transpositions because of keyboard layout, but word selection shouldn't be so darn hard!

    Of course my mis-spelling is covered by my admission of my sucky english. I was pointing out that I'm not perfect there if you didn't catch that; my main attempt to convey that there/their/they're & then/than are well within reach by the 6th grade.
