Unless they reworked the very physics, then I'm pretty sure it was also in the DC version. In fact, unless my memory fails me, that was exactly the case.
Anyway, so you edit your posts to respond to things you've missed? Wish I knew that. I think it would be more helpful to the rest of us if you just posted a new message though, unless you were correcting something you said. I know I myself almost never ever re-read an old message I thought I already read to see if it's been changed. Oh well, no matter.
I'll say this. I may not be here for a while. Something bad happened to my computer (not this thingy). My computer has essetially bombed on me. I know if I could just get it to something software related, I could actually do something to fix it, but it seems to be hardware, not software. My motherboard itself seems to be the problem. My hard drive may also be a problem. It all started when I tried putting it in my old machine to test some things. Nothing came of it, so I returned it, and boom, the thing won't even flash on my moniter. I can't even see the POST screen! No confirmation beep, though everything else sounds to be in perfect order, and no error lights are activated on the mother board. Trying different moniters and video cards was to no avail. Trying a different hard drive didn't help either. Testing my HD in another machine to make sure the HD wasn't a motherboard killer now for some reason, I find it doesn't in fact kill them, but it seems none of the older mother boards I have around here can read an 80 GB hard drive (they aren't THAT old, but they are first pentium level boards). Anyway, I may end up having to just buy a new motherboard, as my old one may be fried due to something simple like static shock. I'll try each and every other part of my machine on another mother board to make sure they all work, including the processor (a much newer motherboard will be available to me then so I can actually do that). Oh yes, I already tried removing the watch battery for several minutes to see if that reset something and fixed it, no dice.
If anyone has any help, I'll try being at this machine again to check on it to read it. Thanks anyway, and I think if I need a new motherboard I'll need to cancel a pre-order sadly... Oh well...

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
