Could't agree more Rob. The thing that I want to point out is that even if you see problems with P3D, you are talking about a platform that is being actively worked on. There is a group of software engineers/developers being paid to make it better, faster, stabler and did I mention better. FSX has a tons of add ons and can me made to look great, but the legacy code is stuck in it's tracks. I started with flight simulator in 1986 on Atari and have embraced every new version, I see no reason to stop with FSX. Good times! Jon

Even PMDG has to release a patch to their 777. I genuinely believe them when they say they make their absolute best effort to release a bug free product. The thing is, when software reaches a certain level of complexity it is not necessarily that customers are being "victimized" by lazy software developers as much as the complexity becomes so much that it becomes difficult to find every single bug and potential software problem with a finite resource of testers and developers. Of course it can happen, some developers intentionally release a knowingly incomplete product but I don´t think it´s a s simple as you say. I for one have not had any troubles with P3Dv2 at all, so the "bug filled" release would have passed muster on my specific computer and my specific setup. No amount of dislikes, disagreements or comments to the contrary can erase the fact that I have had a trouble free use of P3Dv2. Kind regards JS
