We all expected to be using 5GHz processors.I am not kidding.

This is indeed interesting. Either multiple cores or living transistors. I've heard they are making headway with actual cell level transistors wich, in essence, could propel the computer into thinking machines. I believe the Japanese were working down this route. Just imagine, 30 years ago they were using punch cards and vaccum tubes, now look where we are.Ian.

Adam,I wish you had kept this information to yourself...I far prefer thinking you and Microsoft are the evil and darkness, and that FSX was only created to make my life a living ####.Beyond that...great product and thanks for the continuing work.
