The official QuakeCon site has beenupdated with lots of news about the upcoming convention. Here’s their list ofwhat’s planned for attendees:

• Attend a keynote address by id Software co-founder and lead programmerJohn Carmack
• Get a first look at QUAKE 4 multiplayer gameplay
• Get the latest details on Enemy Territory: QUAKE WARS
• Go to two over-the-top, wild parties
• Check out the $150,000 Nvidia Championships at QuakeCon
• Attend the popular overclocking workshop sponsored by HardOCP

I think it’s also likely there will be something related to the upcoming(October) DOOM movie there.

It’s also mentioned that computerrentals are available for those not bringing their own machines.
