Hopefully in 3 weeks all the hype I've been giving my 
friends/family for the past year or more(probably seems like a 
decade to them) about Quake will be justified. 

However, I showed the ITS demo to my 11 year old little bro(High 
end pentium, 30+ fps, etc., etc.) and his first comment was "why 
are the characters so blocky?". Just goes to show that everything 
is relative... 

Maybe we should keep this in mind when we talk about the Next Big 
Revolution in computer games.
