How is the game? Are the graphics good? Should I buy it? ('cause it's on the bargain shelf in CompUSA)

Kato! You have turned my apartment into a..a..Chinese nookie factory!

Get it. Especially if you have internet access (or DSL or Cable) --and then you can play multi-player games with other Mac-heads at www.gameranger.com for free. Oh, and just let your family know that you're gonna be unavailable for a six months or so...

I'll buy it as soon as I get my TiBook with OS X. Is Quake 2 going to be carbonized???

I thought this was only for Mac OS X Server? And from what I understand
X Server apps don't work with user X and haven't since DP3 or DP4.

Humph, have you tried it and succeeded? I'll try it tomorrow (not at my
comp tonight ).

Well, the Omni patch didn't work for me. Sadly enough it doesn't run
well on classic either (at least for me it doesn't).

Pehaps in the future Omni will make one for Mac OS X client.
