I for some reason thought there was a EMS store in a near by strip area today and was wrong, so i ended up stoping by dicks sporting goods since i didn't wanna feel like i wasted my $4 a gallon gas on a 15 mile trip for nothing ... to the point ..

Since i needed a new tent and backpack i was looking specificlly at there backpacking tents and seen the Eureka "Zeus" ... cept its called the apollo 2 ... the only information i could find online is that DSG had the tents renamed, and are $30 bucks cheaper than the Zeus at $150 ... i picked my "apollo 2" up for $119 ... does anyone know anything else about why they had the name changed? ... its the exact same color/specs as the zeus and was 30 bucks cheaper, i'm simply curious ... nothing more ...

The only difference from what I've read is that the the Apollo 2 has clips rather than the carabiner that the Zeus had.
