Of course.
 
As long as you don't try the dos version!
 
The versions you will want to get are
 
winquake (no 3d acceleration, (but not really needed for 800Mhz CPUs these days))
GLQuake (openGL)
 
But the creme-de-la-creme is the new "Unofficial GLQuake". It supports coloured FOG, and Bumpmapping, vertex skinning? (no dislocated arms). It's just too much.

There's supposedly a 3d accelerated version of dukenukem3d in the works... lovely

OP
Hey,
 
Yeah my doubt was with what I vaguely remembered being a DOS installer.
 
But I've got it working just cool now thanks with GlQuake, and I'm about to try out that unofficial GLQuake - that sounds so cool
 
Thanks,
