My life has never been the same since-and I love my wife for not only pushing me into a direction I probably would have never took but accepting me since, as for the past 21 years have been a rw flying junkie due to her possible mistake..eat your hearts out-this is the wife you all seek! :(

My beautiful better half also plays a few games on the LAN with me!! What more can a guy ask for????

I'm pretty lucky that way too. My wife will play WOW upstairs on her machine, and I can get in a couple of short flights on mine.

Oh, man, TAPCIS... Alan (71420.3306 - I haven't thought of that number in about a decade and a half, at least!)

Oh yeah, TAPCIS made reading and navigating those old compuserve forums so much easier.Regards.Ernie.

What was that flight sim called on the C64 where you had to fly mail across the US?

I only remember "final flight" on the C64....I must have missed that one...

Ahhhh, the good old days!Brings back memories of US Navy Fighters, with the 'old style' graphics...LOL I remember when X-Wing came out in '93 and we would spend hours and hours playing that on a 12" Toshiba laptop with a 386 CPU.I thought to myself, "Man, it can't get any better than this!"That is, until FS 2000 came out!Alan :(

A couple weeks ago while doing some spring cleaning we found an old laptop.On a whim I booted it up to be greeted by Win98.Just for kicks I dug out my old FS5 and loaded it up.My how times have changed. I can remember being blown away by FS5, comparing it to my first version which was FS3 I think. The first version Microsoft put out after buying out Bruce Artwick.I have vague memories of meeting some guy in a bar in Urbana who was working on a flight sim for computers circa '78 or'79.To this day I wonder if it was Bruce.Guess I'll never know. Wish I knew then what I know now.regards,Joe
