Maybe get a smaller car and a bigger PC.

You don't need a 'Stang. You want, you would like, but you don't need.

I don't need a new PC. I want...I would like....but don't need.

I love IL-2 1946....I love 2005 or 1970 'Stangs.

What i'd really like is to save $2500 and buy the FN FS2000 I saw at the sporting goods store the other day. That was one of the coolest things I've ever held.

Since you play IL-2 "only", one reminder of what it means to jump from that to DCS.
IL-2 is a game, and you are done after reading 5 minutes at best, not counting to set
up your keyboard commands. DCS, every title of theirs, apparently, means in-depth study
sims - and you need to treat them like that if you want to get the best out of them.
That means: you will need to spend hours with reading.

I have folders like that for DCS. Maybe not quite as thick though. The folders, not me.

The wife hates that they take up so much room.

Maybe it'd help if I read them once in a while.

I haven't played A-10C since some patch a while ago (before P-51), and I haven't played DCS full stop since just after I got P-51 (and some fantastic skins).

That is too long ago.

I'm a bit more technologically advanced:



Which reminds me, I need to put the Shark start-up and wep systems checklist on to the kindle.
