lol...wow I guess the world will never know that Charles Steinmetz invented alternating current. Who knows maybe he is responsible for Natal too.

Since you seem like the type that lives by information provided by wikipedia I took the liberty to provide you a summary of who the rest of the world thinks invented alternating current.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikola_Tesla

"Nikola Tesla (10 July 1856 – 7 January 1943) was an inventor and a mechanical and electrical engineer. He is frequently cited as one of the most important contributors to the birth of commercial electricity and is best known for his many revolutionary developments in the field of electromagnetism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Tesla's patents and theoretical work formed the basis of modern alternating current (AC) electric power systems, including the polyphase system of electrical distribution and the AC motor, with which he helped usher in the Second Industrial Revolution."

In any case, this is getting way off topic. I will try and watch my spelling in the future...hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.

What we have here is a case of theory versus implementation. I conceed.

I was optimistic about Natal until I saw that it was just another ploy to bring in casual gamers, which is not advantageous for the hardcore fans. When they start showing hardcore games utilizing the technology, my interest will be reignited.
