I understand there is a Showscan High Definition (HDTV) 18 seats simulator
theater in Lakeline Mall Starport, Austin.  It's not 3-D, but the motion of
the seats and the 60 frames per second rate  original material (displayed
"using the fields" in the HDTV video) is suppossed to make you feel "being
there".  Some of the 4-minutes films shown with this system are REALLY BAD,
so given a choice, stay away from "live action" non-special effects shows.
