Well, I've been computing for about 15 years now and I sure haven't used
up the neat toys out there. Lots of stuff to learn and even more to do.
SA>You buy a kid a new toy, they play with it for a while but

Can't say as I've ever even touched the box that Duke Nuke-Em 3-D came
in, but I'm sure enjoying the toy.
BTW, how many programmers do you think there are wandering around that
could program Duke Nukem? How many could program MS Publisher or MS
Works? I sure don't think the average Joe is going to do it while
plugging away on a Saturday afternoon.
