I'm interested in getting into VR, but I have no equipment (beyond my own PC), and I can't afford a comercial system...so I want to build my own. I have a fair amount of electronics experience, and a little in PC interfacing, so I was wondering if there was a FAQ for hardware building available? Thanks Edo Lloyd -- ANSI standard disclaimer.
