Probably a drop in the bucket compared to what is spent on our law enforcement agencies.

And it would probably pay for itself in a few lawsuits. Up until now, the police response to lawsuit/liability costs is to try to devise some way to get immunity and get cases thrown out of court...rather than changing behavior.

Which suggests that the device isn't going with a intel wireless controller again.

Assume no 802.11ac support?

The book gives a pretty good recap of the historical perspective, starting from Daryl Gates and the formation of the first SWAT team, based on Whitman and the Watts riots. I'd love to see a second book myself.

Could you tell us more about the UI changes? There was old-school 1995 sidebar UI, then the more "conventional" UI that came with Generals and some of the Red Alert games. In short...why?

Also, there were some fun elements in the Dune series that could've been ported to earlier C&C's: The use of carryalls to rescue and return repaired units, the active environment (sandworms, though visceroids are somewhat like it...)

Could you comment on C&C Renegade as well? Or was that a different department?

I was going to go with four GDI Guard towers to shred the infantry. As long as there are no zombie bazookamen firing from outside the Guard tower's range...
