I guess you guys all missed the news item that was on the log-in window that mentioned they were doing work on the authentication servers.

There was nothing at all in my login window stating any problems.

However, it's okay now. DL'd the patch and good to go (so far).

Yeah, it took me an hour to download a 4.3MB patch. Then I was "authenticating" for an hour before I had to leave for work =)

I had MEGA problems trying to download the patch. Is aw on another post that the Blizzard downloader sucks big time so I went outside Blizzard to obtain the patch. I was nervous about doownloading from another source, but I got the patch in 10 minutes from #d gaming and it works GREAT!! I had to redo some of my in game settings but otherwise very pleasant experience with 3D! Good luck everyone!
