"you could still order it from id directly. I received my copy


last month, and it cost me around $72 Australian (actually $71.58),


including postage."


John Pallister follwed up again but this


time it cost him $69 in Sydney but hacbj@cougar.vut.EDU.AU


(Brendan Hack) says he won't buy it until he knows whether it's


censored, as Duke 3D apparently was. Can anyone answer this? -- TL ]
