Ah yes, I remember playing Doom on a 386 with the view minimized as small as possible to make it playable. We had a 486 as well, the two machines cobbled together with Arcnet so we could play on the network. The guy on the 486 had a huge advantage in frame rate and larger viewing area, but only the 486 had a soundcard, so the guy on the 386 could get an advantage by listening to the sound from the other computer (you could guess how far away the opponent was based on the volume of your gunfire coming out of the other computer's speakers).

Wow, 20 years, I can't believe it.. thanks for making me feel old today, Slashdot!
