Okay, thanks for that post! I have a question, too!

I've heard that there is a DVD version which plays on a computer and 
is interactive, linking with a Web site and such. I'm sorry to be so 
ignorant, but is this the same one as the regular DVD format? 

I don't have a computer with DVD capabilities, but my daughter does. 
I have a DVD player, and I would just as soon only buy one copy of 
the DVD. 

Please let me know - and in layman's terms, please. I've asked folks 
at a movie rental place and my brother's computer tech. Neither knows.
Maybe it's all the same!

Thanks!
