If I show  that  to my P366 dinasour  of a computer, it just might format its own hard drive.

In the year 2005, I'll bet dollars  to  donuts that  this is what the leading edge sims will look like.

If it looks like that ,then I'll eat my hat...wich is safe because:

A): I'm sure that Wb 3 will look much worse than that.

B): I have no hat!

 Maniac, there is NO way any massively multiplayer sim is close to that yet. No matter what HS spouts.
 Heck a stand alone sim is several years away from fidelity like that. Same with the current generations of computers and monitors to render such fidelity.
 We will see that kind of detail and fidelity in about 5 - 10 years I bet. Closer to the 10th year.

They did post some shot of a zero at the WB III site.

Nothing internal, and they claim to be really far along in the development.

If you can see it, there is a shot at WWIIOnline that really steals the thunder from HS at iEN.
