Hajo, glad you are back. It IS a great game. My plan is to give it all a go.
Right now, I'm in a transition phase.
Oh sure, I'm still the dashing ex-professional aviator I always was, with a full head of dark hair and the same lightning like reflexes and eagle-eyed vision I had in my 20s.
Now if you believe all that.......I do have a sale on a bridge in the northeast.
Anyway, I'm moving a few states north from where I am now, bought a new house, selling the present house. Will have to get the internet figured out and then a computer upgrade. I just was not happy with the one I built and how it played AHIII. The big thing that ticked me off was the ASUS mobo I used. AFTER the purchase, I found out it has a known problem recognizing all 16MB of ram I put in. It only sees 8MB. So, I KNOW I'm going new mobo and since I'm doing that...well....you know.
As for the 'net. Where I'm going out in the sticks there's a very poor DSL option that neighbors say suxxors. There's a Fixed Wireless option that folks says works fairly well but is expen$ive. The other option is Verizon Wireless streaming from my phone. It's 4G; probably won't see 5G out in the sticks for a long time. However, it is an area with very good Verizon coverage. So we are thinking a Verizon mobile hotspot and streaming everything from that. Not that much $$ to upgrade my current Verizon plan to the 'all you can eat' data plan.
In fact, I will start another thread here asking for guidance on this net issue. Expect to see a cutnpaste of this in a new thread.
Again, thanks to all for the inputs. This project will go forward when we get resettled.
