Doom was lagging like crazy . I have played doom 2 on a 486 dx2 with 64meg of ram back in the day and it performed way better then that, No lag and a good fps. Dunno what they have for hardware but it must be really cheap crap .
The government isn't helping the airlines by making it an excruciating violation of every fliers privacy rights. Which s just a pony show anyway......what good does it do to screen the flights but not patrol the border or not inspect 99% of the cargo that comes into the country? I'll tell you what it's good for.........keeping Americans afraid. That aside if a Airline offered at least quality games that I could play against other players on a plane It would become my preffered airline. I played some soccer star from south america at lumines on one flight and that was pretty cool.
Neat, idea, but touchscreen? Not only will you have to contend with the dolt kicking your seat and hammering the tray back into it's upright position every 10 seconds, but now, we'll all get to enjoy the ham fisted pounding & fingermashing being transferred through the seat to the back of our heads. People won't be using this thing as gently as that guy in the demo.

well, he did say it was running Linux. But I doubt that was the issue.
