Thanks...  I was at id via a link from the CD but that page took me to 
planetquake...  So I did a google and was sent everywhere but id!
Oh well, happily downloading...

Also, jeez, I forgot about the nausea that comes w/ playing this game! 
Sheesh!  It's going to take a while to get used to this again...  I dunno, 
an hour of nausea for every 10 minutes of gameplay, is it worth it?

Thanks, I've been googling around...  I remember when you could find all 
kinds of cool info on Q2 - seemed everywhere you turned...  One of my 
favorite sites (for the good content but also for the giggles it gave me) 
was QuakeWeenie, but that site is sadly gone...  I never seemed to get away 
from the weenie status, hedged off of it for a while there but never really 
got above it...  Oh well...  I had fun anyway....

See ya around kid!
