.............. UBIsoft has officially changed the name Silent Hunter IV into Silent Hunter 4 ?

That is probably because they want to sell the sim to zillions of instant action loving kiddies that have no idea what IV means :D

It's okay, people are always substituting Arabic numbers for Roman numerals anyway, as in Silent Hunter 111 instead of III. I mean, "Silent Hunter One-Eleven"?

Really.:roll:

Heh. I think Scrubs is funny. I don't like when it becomes abruptly serious, personally.

And I'm reminded of this from the Simpsons:

Edna Krabappel: "Pay attention to this lesson on Roman numerals, children, or you won't know the years certain films were made"
