Hi there. I've been a member for a short while but I've been looking around the site for a bit longer.
At the moment I'm running FSX SP2 on decent 3 year-old kit (Core2Duo E6600 2.4Ghz, 2Gb DDR2, nvidia 7950GT) but will certainly upgrade - WHEN is the question :( Control is via Saitek X52 Pro stick and throttle - not ideal but it'll do for now. I'd at least like a yoke and pedals :)
Just bought the new Horizon VFR Vol.4 : The Western Isles and it's great, but I'm concentrating on a round the world flight just now.
I've never bought a ready-made PC, so I feel quite at home with the insides of a computer. I was into electronics when I was a laddie (seems like a LONG time ago :) - I'm 42 now) and would like to build some of the kit on the Open Cockpits site so I'd be interested in hearing other builders' experiences.
That'll do for a first post. Don't want you all sky-diving without a 'chute :)
Best wishes
