Quake multiplayer was a really big thing!

I remember playing it on some 486 PCs, now unimaginable, but then it was really great!

There was even a ~700KB (!) version, stripped down to the most necesary: TCP/IP multiplayer with only 1 level, but man, you could bring it to the classroom on a 1,44MB floppy!
