Is X plane the only challenger to FS now?

I know many will laugh at my statement,but that's ok! FS9 is gathering dust on my desk,it's not even installed on my hard drive.I've had enough of tweaking and spending.Microflight for me is fresh and clean,it has its faults,but the lighting,fast frame rates and crisp fresh scenery just holds me captive(take a look at the northern Italy scenery).I'm not looking forward to FS10---Microsoft's history points to its future...more of the same old.i'm looking forward to the next version of Microflight.
