It's always refreshing to read a comment from someone who is just enjoying the game. There is a contrast with attitudes that are always looking for something wrong and even those who always want the next best thing - which is pretty much my ilk.
It reminds me that the sea is pretty blue on this side of the harbor and maybe I should just have fun playing for a while and relax a bit.
Good hunting Simsurfer!

I frequent a forum about 2 stroke sports bike -which everybody knows are prone to engine destruction if miscared or abused- and the same happens there, lots of rants and terror histories about engine destructions. But then you realize most people on those forums got there precisely because they had a problem and wanted help, and are not representative of the inmense community of satisfied users
A reality check shows that: I'm having tons of fun with the game and some so called "bugs" I noticed for the first time when someone pointed them out. Never bothered me before, so they still don't spoil my enjoyment
it's a game after all...and what a fun one!

I'm a big believer in the KISS principle - Keep It Simple Stupid. Especially when it comes to the Microsoft/Intel/PC cartel.

Me too, but I also found a very good solution to have a clean running XP system. I made a clean install of XP plus all software I want to have (Not games, just Office and such) then unscrewed my hard disk and plugged it into my wife's PC. Made a backup of that clean install in a DVD and Presto! Each 6 months or so I remove the HDD, plug it into another computer and format the disk partition which contains windows, copying the back-up there instead. In less than 20 minutes I have again a fresh new Windows install running as fast as it ever did
