It's since been pointed out to me that there is something amiss with the
machine in question.  BTFOM what it is, though -- Doom and Descent run fine
on that machine.  Maybe DUKE doesn't like his SCSI controller.  I was
suprised at the poor performance, seeing as the person in question has 16
megs of RAM to play with...

ObGC*: As for my machine, I bought it from a guy who was selling computers
out of the trunk of his car.  Why?  Is there a problem with that?
