It is true.  VictorMaxx is just a piece of paper these days.  The HMD
section of VictorMaxx was dumped last summer so that resources could
be focused on the AutoDuel project (a VR LBE center based on Steve
Jackson's "Car Wars" game).  Due to the lack of funding, however, the
project was aborted and everyone was layed off.  As of today, it is
simply a corporate shell with no employees or projects.  As far as I
know, there is no designated location for repairing or buying new
parts for the CyberMaxx (although I have 2 non-working headsets myself
if someone is desperate for parts), but the web site and ftp site have
been gone since November '96.
