- For the people asking for x86 (intel) machine recommendations for
- virtual reality applications, the following list comes from the usenet
- group comp.sys.games.ibm.pc.
-
- The winners have local-bus video and DX2/66 MHz chips.
-
- The benchmark used is frames per second measured by the "Superscape 3D
- benchmark," which is available on the sample disk in _Virtual_
- _Reality_Playhouse_. It's also available at the FTP site mentioned
- below.
