I've not even attempted P3D Rob.. the slightest thing can upset FSX on my i5 so why aim for the next one up without the hardware to handle it!
The current price is certainly tempting but having just had to do a fresh install of FSX Deluxe + ACC.. I took the precaution of making a complete copy.. 2 in fact (Sri Mr Microsoft).. one on a spare drive and the other on an external so hopefully.. I'm covered for a while. That's the theory anyway

Crivens! & Help ma Bob!
It's back up to CDN$ 27.99.
It's like watching the price of Petrol (Gas) today I paid 97 cents per liter at Costco, cheaper than when we came here 10 years ago.

Thought I'd install FSX-SE on my little 10" Windows tablet (1.33Ghz Intel Atom CPU with embedded graphic & 2gb ram

) just for a laugh. Didn't actually expect it to even run, but did. Loaded up the default C172 at Duxford.
Frame rate set to 30 & that's where it sat. Changed the setting to unlimited & it went up to 40ish.

OK, most of the graphics setting were on the low side, but even cranking them up a bit to mid range and I was still getting 25 to 30. Quite impressed really.

Now, where's my PMDG NGX...

I'm somewhat surprised to find that DTG have found several FSX add-ons that they have released on Steam. The latest are the four parts of JF's VFR scenery for England and Wales - currently on 25% discount at £9.74 each until 1800 GMT on March 3rd (or all four parts for £29.99) ...
