Hi... I'm new here and I'd like to ask a few questions, but first my
name is James and I'm from Lynnwood, Washington.

I've been trying to get involved in VR technologies for the past year
or two although it's not a new science I have just become aware of
it's existance about 2 years ago. At current I haven't even
experienced a virtual-world in the sense of a computer generated 3-D
stereoscopic virtual-world. I would very much like to but this seems
out of my grasp.  If anyone out there in the greater Seattle area
would be willing to help a freshman college student get involved with
VR technologies it would be greatly appreciated and would create an
incredible impact on this students life!!! If you would like to help
me in my quest for knowledge I will certainly repay you for your
efforts, maybe not in the near future but I will repay!

I have one other question: I have access to several PowerGloves here
in Lynnwood, but I'm wary of buying one because I don't at the present
have the knowledge of connecting one up to my 386, nor do I have the
software to drive it!  Does anyone here suggest getting a PowerGlove,
it's only $29.95 here and that's not too much?

Has anyone read the book entitled CyberSpace by Michael Benedikt?  If
so what are your reviews?

Again thanks to any replies that I may or may not get here on
sci.virtual-worlds.  I appreciate any help.... thank you.  James
