    I recently purchased the following products from Aerosoft.

    Monaco X
    Helgoland X
    Piper Cheyenne X
    FSX Mission Pack 1
    FSX Acceleration

    I'll be looking to get them around this week. Should be great fun.
    I also have installed (borrowed from a sim geek) Lukla X, DHC-6 Twin Otter, the Wilco Airbus series (both), Pilatus PC-12.

    I also plan to get FS Global 2008 + FS Genesis (a must).
    Any comments on FS Global?
    Ja mata, TosaInu. You will forever be remembered.

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    Should be great for FSX. You'll still have limitations, but you'll be able to enjoy most of the good stuff.

    On the other hand, FS2004 will smoke on that system. You'll be able to run everything maxed with heavy AI traffic at major airports. That's something you can only dream of in FSX.

    Both sims are CPU hogs, not so much on the video card.

    Well as long as it will run smooth.
    After my disasterous flight from Sweden to Greece where most of the flight was a bit of a slide show and after 2 hours flight my graphic card overheats and game crash.
    I was so close to Greece.

    FSX requirements are really strange. If TB666 got a slide show on that computer, then what can I say when I have 15fps on Venice X from Aerosoft, with this:

    Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHZ
    4GB RAM
    200GB HDD 7200rpm
    nVIDIA Go 7900GS

    15 fps on Venice X! And I have everything on medium to max!

    What the...??!!!
