Not quite, but that's when the CG stuff started.  There was about 10-15 
minutes of plot before the computer graphics got going.

And the Light Cycles are *The* classic scene in Tron IMO.

But I suspect this is getting Off-Topic...

And I really hate having to download stuff over a 56k modem.  If I had 
access to ISDN or ADSL, I could have gone to bed about 15 minutes ago... 
:(

Bye for now,
