I think that Blitz3d is still pretty decent, but it all depends what you want to do and your level of expertise. However, in general, I suspect that DX7 is more than enough for most people here - me included. I honestly don't think that you'll be disappointed with blitz3d if you give it a shot.
Most people seem to want DX9/10 support because they think that it will make their games better looking, when really that's down to the quality of the media that people use. Which is something that Puki seems to be well aware of... ;)
