Anything that can potentially boost performance without increasing cost is a good thing, in my humble opinion. It seems likely to be more portable than DirectX as well, which doesn't hurt - especially with MS's tradition of bundling DirectX with OS upgrades. Chances are that it will be quickly picked up by some or all middleware providers (really, just bringing it to Unreal, iD, Frostbite and Unity would enable most mainstream games) or that it already has. I've heard a lot of naysayers, which befuddles me, but I don't see any reason not to like it in principle. As for performance, we'll have to wait and see.
