Update: Doom for NeXT!

[Gareth Bestor]

I though I'd share what little I know about Doom for NeXT h/w in effort to
inform others and cut down the number of postings complaining why it isn't
available and what's taking so damn long. Personally, it makes a nice change
for a software company not to hype about their product before its done.

Here's what they told me:

Send questions about id Software to he...@idsoftware.com
(NeXTmail OK).

So just sit back, be patient and enjoy the holidays - Doom/FMP will be
here soon.

but the current mis-information about Doom is getting tiresome.

Yes, please don't send them to id.com (that's us).

Although I'd love to say we wrote DOOM, we didn't!

Thanks,
