- I hate to say it Brian, but tell your friend to go to the local
- library. EVERY library, as small as it might be has PLENTY of
- material about VR avaible, or can get it within days through a library
- loan. I think it would just be a waste of time for anyone answering
- basically all the FAQ's here... Which reminds me... I might be wrong,
- but if I should remember it right, someone mentioned VR FAQ files are
- avaible via anonymous FTP to ftp.washington.edu (someone correct me
- if I got that address wrong, please).
-
- If you friend has any more questions AFTER reading the books available
- in the library, e.g. the most current VR systems or anything like
- that, I'm pretty sure that someone on this mailing list will be happy
- to answer.
