I thought this was already known as one of the selling points of Q3A???

Anyway, I'm not sure if it's Beizer curves or NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational
B-Splines) that they are using, but the technology is right up there!! Get
ready to upgrade (yet again!!).

The upgrade from Quake to QuakeII for me involved getting a 3D card. I think
this upgrade is going to do a lot more damage for my wallet. All good fun!!!

Current system contains Celeron 300A (overclocked 450MHz), 128Mb SDRAM, CL
RivaTNT. I'm going to wait and see how Q3A runs before buying anything!! I
reckon a new processor P III 550Mhz will suffice.

Comments?
