Yes Eddy - its tough. Beauty of the flight sims is that they'll last a couple hours at worst.

I don't know about going medeival. Could be that turning cockpit to cockpit at the merge with yelling "Fights On" starting the dogfight is really where it is at

You can also call me a nerd too. 2.8Ghz QuadCore, 4Gigs RAM, ATI 4870 1Gig RAM for graphics, 2 - 500GB Barracuda drives run RAID mirrored, 2 - 250cfm intake fans and 2 - 150cfm outtakes.

I like to play First-person Shooters and this economy has given me a lot of spare time to do so.

Quad core 9660, 4GB XP Pro (with W2K, and a couple Linux boxes in VMs) 9650 w/512, 1 WD640 with snapshots to a 1TB FreeAgent, running twin 21" FPD2185Ws, Cougar HOTAS with Rudder Pedals and Track-IR4 for flight simming .

Previously mentioned Lanbox w/ 2x320GB RAID1, 6GB RAM, and a couple other dirves running Hyper-V core with a couple dev servers, Windows 7, and WHS running Virtual.
