For all wannabe-shuttle-pilots

An update on the Space Shuttle Simulator 2007.

It seems the creators of this sim finally, after long time, have learned somehing from their customer-hostile PR-policy, and have eased restrictions on access to their forums. Where before you had to be a registered customer of the already bought product without having the chance to learn more about their product first (by skimming their forums), this now is possible. With a niche-simulation like this, it is highly recommendable to do so before separating from your money.

Why they have changed their former restrictions, I do not know. Maybe sales-numbers were not like they hoped they would be.

I can't say that my experience with my long-ago attempt to contact their support via email was a pleasant one (got repeatedly ignored, I assume for asking too uncomfortable questions on their installation limits), but in their defence I must also admit that they have offered constant updates and missions since they released the title. The latest update has just been released.

Me personally, they have lost me - it simply was too long a time before they fixed their behavior. But I remember that some other people voiced potential interest in the title longer time ago, so I just post this.
