This is ED we're talking about. So my money's on about July. I am a
professional cynic though. :-)

The big question for me is, will it use Starforce? Starforce means no buy.

I would sit back and watch the fun, but this group is so dead ... 'if
someone likes starforce in a dead USENET group, does anyone flame it?'
Personally, I have no problem with SF. Some people legitimately
don't like that it loads deep drivers onto your computer to do its
work. I don't mind, others do. On the other hand, I am not into ..
ahem .. backing up all my optical disk based software either. Go
figure.

That has nothing to do with it. I don't like having drivers on my
computer that have the potential to slow down my DVD drive from DMA mode
to PIO mode and then having to screw around to fix it. Just try playing
a DVD movie to see what the effects of that are. Some cdrw/dvd drives
can't even run Starforce protected games and then it's up to the
consumer to figure out why. Gee, ain't PC gaming fun?

Confirmed? Oh, well, it's their loss. I'm not alone in refusing to buy
any more SF protected games, it's quite wide spread by now too.
