atw: Re: Artefact or Artifact?

Hah! Bumped into this one a long time ago. 

Your hypo is correct. However, the yanks accept e, so if you use e you will
be more compliant to an international audience.

Greetings All,
I am trying to decide whether to use Artefact or Artifact.  The dictionary I
have here says both are acceptable, but doesn't explain why there are two
versions.  I suspect Artefact is British and Artifact is US.  Does anyone
have a preference or etymology?  I don't have web access at work.
