My 12 y/o daughter recently ran into a "does it run DOOM" reference in media (I think a graphic novel-- not sure) and asked me about it. I got to explain the phenomenon and show her some examples (she found the pregnancy test to be particularly amusing). I'll have to show her this one.
I am faintly disappointed that "running Doom" did not involve printing out a series of frames at a hilariously low effective framerate, then taking the pile and using it as a flipbook.

Writing a Forth for hardware that originally ran PostScript would have been an interesting decision.

Looks roughly as smooth as it looked on my 25mhz 386
This is freaking awesome.
Agfa: now there's a name you don't see any more.
There were so many companies in that sector back in the eighties and nineties. It seemed like every conglomerate had a division making printers.
Now do Crysis
