Bet the CGW review helped.

Yea, that's pretty much what I meant when I asked about the length of the learning curve. Thanks for everyone's thoughts on this. I know its very much an individual thing.

I, for one, have a 3-year old and a 4-month old, which means playing time is limited to after they're both asleep and my wife and I collapse. Which means, 1 hour a night, tops. That lack of time combined with the $50 price tag makes this a tough decision. I'm not trying to ignite a debate about the price (I read that thread), I'm sure Shrapnel understands the economics of this far better than me. I'm just saying this is a tough call. I only wish I was twenty-something again and single, because then I had lots of free time (though no money )

Anyway, I press on with the demo as I mull the decision.
