Call me a pedant, but this bugs (heh) me every time someone comes out with "we ran doom on X!" when they're really just using X as a display. Same thing with the pregnancy test a few years back.
The whole "it runs doom" thing is meant to be about actually running the game engine, not getting something to display the output of another computer actually running it.

- crtasm 3y agoThat's running on your brain, not the paper.
