Hoorayy!!!

*clap* *clap* *clap*!!!

Finally, an enlightened games programmer! It's so heartwarming to have a
person with a clean programming mind doing high-quality games for a
change, instead of the usual hacks!

(although speaking of hacks, I trust the unix version will be a LOT nicer
to networks... I still haven't played DOOM yet.. I don't dare too, cause
I believe I'll crash our PC network?! :-> )

I'd just like to commend you, and say that if you get a loner machine to
compile a sparc version, you've got a customer right here!
