I'm not sure, but I heard that Quake wont be out until Intel has released
the Dodectium. This chip will be one trillion times faster than the super
computer used by NORAD. Unfortunately, it will only be able to run at low
detail (300,000 x 456,000) which will allow discernment from reality if
you put a scanning electron microscope against the screen. So they are
recommending we wait for the release of the clock quintupled Dodectium ZX5
before we expect true VR performance. Sorry guys, thats just the way it
is.
