also, is equake basically just fuhquake with a bunch of added stuff?  so if 
i got equake, i'd get fuhquake, plus a whole lot more?

I just need to have basic quake 1.08 installed, right?  Other than paying 
planetquake a fee to download something that should be free (since I own 
Quake1), where can I get 1.08?

thanks a bunch.
