Well, if there is even one GPL'ed (or GPL-compatible, such as public domain) WAD file out there, even if with only one level in it, that should do. Doom may be primitive by today's bleeding edge standards but it sure would be a hell of a nice thing to ship with the main system. Heck, Caldera's installer lets the user play Tetris instead of watching a progress meter, it would really kick to let the user play Doom instead. :) -- G.
