What sim are we all using most?

Without opening another can of worms
, I thought that it would be interesting to see how many here now use FSX
MORE than FS9.
I know that I now seldom fly FS9 :o , something I would not have thought possible 6 months ago.
Please just vote and try not to turn this poll into anything more than a way of surveying how (if at all) the forum members have migrated to FSX over the past 18 months, as they upgrade their hardware or buy new PC's . It might give our freeware developers a clue to 'which way the wind is blowing', so to speak.

Hi Trev
I don't see how a pole of who uses what will guide any deveolper as they build their stuff for the sim they use :think:

Well I have both and now I have built a system that can run FSX with ease with everything maxed out, I still prefer FS9 :o
I have had a couple of plays with FSX just to check out the system and yes I like the voices in ATC and a few graphical features but it lacks FS9 abilities and I cant live without FSNav! So its FS9 for me it works how I want it to and I dont have sit behind a sh!tty VC all the time
Good news is I never registered FSX so I can happily sell it on eBay, there must be a fool somewhere ;-)
Take the test ;-)

FS2000 for me as it's the pick of the bunch. Runs well on any mainframe pc and the graphics are smooth as silk ;-)

Bit meaningless without knowing what add-ons etc. were running in each sim.
Oh and FSX only here.

No box for Flight Simulator II from subLogic for the Apple II, II+ and //e?
Well, I do use it once a year or so - just for a laugh and for nostalgia. It does load a lot faster than FS9.
Oh, Garry - I doubt the 'Poles' have any effect on guiding developers also. ;-)
