What site? I'd like to bind some commands. I also need to find - if stil
out there - a quakeworld server or two. I d/led gamespy arcade and it
seems to indicate that there may be some activity but very infrequently.
No one was in a QW server when I booted in. 

For BelPowerSlave: I just edited my .bat file to boot quake into a
1280x1024 resolution and it worked fine on my PC.
