Just as a matter of interst, MS quote minimum specs but why don't they also quote recommended specs for FS9?Victor

If they quoted recommended specifications then there profit margin would decrease. If someone feels their 600MHz computer is going to play the flight simulation adequately then they may purchase the product. Once it is in their hands, generally, they may complain about the quality of play but will not return the product.I would recommend 3x the minimum computer speed Microsoft recommended as minimum for a starting point.I am sure this minumun ploy is used throughout the computer industry, hardware and software.W.
