ot: directx9 penetration

Hey,

Maybe a bit offtopic, but does anybody know where I could
find some data 
on penetration of different
directx versions?  In the ongoing quest to a decent
alternative to 
director for 3d development, ogre3d has
seriously drawn my attention, but it has dopped directx7
support in its 
newer versions. (you can use
still use older releases if you want to target directx7)..

I'm trying to find some data on how much penetration the
directx9 
runtime has. I'm afraid it will be a commercially
bad move to not support directx7 for my usual target marget,
but I'd 
like to be proved wrong.

Bye, Lucas
