Was wondering if I should buy FSX. Is it an improved Flight sim? I saw the demo and did not like it. is the real thing better or should I stay with FS9?

It depends on the speed of your computer. I have a 2.4 GHz processor, 1 GB of RAM and a 256 MB video card. I would have to run it at minimal settings and I don't want that. I'm waiting for DX10 video cards and a new computer. People are having a lot of trouble with FSX, hopefully MS will create a patch. My vote, for now, is stay with FS9. Smile

FSX is absolutely horrible unless you have a fast computer. I'm still flying with FS9, until I get a 512mb graphics card. And I have multiple compatability problems too, like it runs worse on my Dualcore AMD machine then my older P4 machine. Things like that make FS9 a more reasonable choice until a newer generation of computers are released at affordable prices.
