[sldev] Havok4 Public Beta is here!

[Dzonatas]

I was on the beta before the crowd, and it was pretty quick. The sandbox 
got littered with physical objects, piled on top of each other, cars 
rammed into blocks, bullets bounced around (lsl collision didn't kick 
in), stacked structures were knocked down, and many people rezzed 
physical objects as fast as they can. The sim was completely tortured 
far from any normal use.

it finally lagged really bad where everybody couldn't move..

BUT It didn't matter if the physics were not perfect... people 
cheered...  No crash...
