My inner electronics engineer screams for correction: bauxite is aluminum ore, while modern electronics (for the moment) starts life as silicon dioxide aka silica, our main source of silicon, out of which everything from the most basic diodes and transistors to the most complex integrated circuits and processors are made (at least in part)</nerd_rant>

But if they indeed put it that way in the game as long as it's reasonably balanced I won't care, I'll just take it as proof of the superiority of Tropican scientists and stand in awe of their next generation aluminum computers

BTW, anyone else get the feeling that Tropico is becoming more and more like an uber-micro version of Simcity? I mean if I want skyscrapers and subways I don't care much about how each individual citizen is faring or what faction leaders and foreign dignitaries think of me; I'll just re-install SC4...

Well, someone has to fill in that empty void of economic simulation, and Simcity V is finally coming after a 5 year period, Then again Simcity usually have a development period of 5 years average
