"Startrek.com has announced that there is going going to be an Online Convention (http://www.vir-con.net/) in early August. Every attendee will be able to make themselves look like any of your favorite ST species, Borg, Klingon, Vulcan, Terran, Ferengi, etc etc. The servers for the event are supposed to be able to handle up to 100,000 users, which would mean a rather large convention, let's just hope it doesn't suffer the same fate as Final Fantasy. With full 3D conventions here now, can a holodeck really be that far off?"

OOOoohhhhh errrrrrrrr Missus! The thought of 100,000 anoraks all converging on one site is a nightmare scenario. What next, the virtual train spotters convention?
Nice idea but doomed to be flooded by the obsessed.
