Re: Welcome to Windows 8
I'd agree with the split personality bit, but if you just ignore the start menu, or just treat it as a full screen start button the rest of it is pretty good. Its the first time since FSX was released where I've been able to do a FSAirliners flight of more than an hour without the client crashing out, and the first time in FSX with FSA that I've managed to get to Malta without having to use accelerated time so that the flight fits within the timeframe before FSA crashes. This now means I'll be able to fly the props on long flights in FSA
So far the only thing I've loaded that doesn't work as it should id the QW146. There is an issue with the main gauge, which causes it to start building huge temp files (1- 2 GB) on the C drive. But if you leave it for 20 minutes its fine. I think Ernie has some ideas as to what's causing it so I live in hope.

I have on more than one occasion wondered why the touch screen on my laptop wasn't working when I've poked a link with my finger, repeatedly. Before remembering it doesn't have a touch screen...And if you are not using a tablet, all you will get is finger marks on your screen
