Microsoft is running a usability study for a product that we have in


development. We are looking for participants who meet the following


criteria:



1) Must have played Quake and Duke Nukem 3D at least 20 hours each


2) Must have played Quake at least 3-5 hours in the past week


3) Must play "run 'n gun" games at least 5-10 hours per week


4) Must have purchased at least 3 PC games in the last 6 months



If you answered "yes" to all of the preceding questions and are interested


in participating in a one hour usability lab, please e-mail me. This test


will take place on the main Microsoft campus, so you must be able to get to


Redmond. As a gratuity for participating, you will recieve a free


Microsoft product. Thank you for your time. I look forward to hearing


from you.
