Good luck getting that Direct3D to run on Os X or Linux. Without some hack solution like Wine.

You are assuming one wants to do it.

Clearly some do. That's why Wine is working on it (FOSS) and there are closed translation layers too, like from Feral and VP.

I obviously mean DX11 on Linux for running Windows games, not DX11 on Sandy Bridge.
