  So I read on your Web site.  I'm getting eager to see DNF... after seeing 
the brand-new Quake II shots today, DNF should look spectacular!  And not to 
mention the fact that you can now have in-game cutscenes, which should be a 
little less disconcerting than switching to a 2D animation.
  Another little point I have... after reading about MMX in Computer Gaming 
World, I think that MMX support in future 3D Realms games would be a good 
idea.  It may not necessarily speed things up, but you can get better colours 
(including real-time colour mixing), higher-quality sound, etc. without a 
slow-down.
