i take back some of the comments i made about the doom engine and old
wordperfect
i did mean to be insulting at the time but i'm generally not that way

i was just taken back when i saw people comparing apples to oranges

lemme try again...
when car magazines compare cars they compare within comparable classes

i think comparing doom and quake is comparing two different classes of
games....one was coded when 486 was the standard and the other was coded
for upper end pentiums.....you really can't make a standard for
comparison between the two....each is the top of it's class 

I have the feeling I'll be having this same convo in a year when quake
is obsolete and some new game is pushing the edge :)
