My History of Flight Simming This post was originally meant to be a reply to this thread, but became extensive enough that I felt it warranted its own blog entry.

I got the bug early on with Sid Meier's original...

Wow, it's great to be (virtually) flying again!

The Trials and Tribulations of Replacing a Motherboard (or "How I Stopped Worrying and Learned to Love my GTX460")
