oboe, i just put in a 1.2ghz a month ago.  I upgraded to a ECS K7S5A model motherboard.  It supports AMR, DIMM, or DDR ram.. which is purty good.

How much does a Geforce 3 go for nowadays?  I've seen it priced at local stores around  $350?  I think thats way too much.

oct out!

I just cant hold it back any longer!  (Sniff)  Sometimes a good cry just lets it all out and then I can climb back into that 109.

Great work, Aces High!

Well said banana. Let us not forget there are just as many, or actually quite a few more that DO spend two hours each night (well alot anyway) in the MA that also DO find that there's a whole lot more that's right with AH, than what's wrong with it.

I agree with you, this game has been the best combat sim i've flown yet (and i've tried all the other popular ones)

I dont really have anything major to complain about and I like the fact that ppl who work on the game actually play it and pay attention to their customers (someting which i didn't see in other sims, esp. WB)

Looking forward to the update.

Yes banana S!

The reason why allot of people stick to AH for so long, says something about their appreciation of the good things in AH.
 

S! HTC

I would like to add my kudos to HT and company too. These guys work thier buns off to give us a good overall gaming experience. Having seen first hand some of the things they do to try to ensure a good flight model I can only sit in awe at what they have accomplished in such a short time.

If most of us players would just work with the tools (planes, gv's) that they give us and quit worrying about the small details I think we could all enjoy this much more. I would like to see the paddle blade prop on the D-11 though... :) (jk)

Hey Oboe,

I'm in Rochester. We should get together sometime and have a beer or two. I think Dago is up in Lakeville, and Ghosth is only a hop, skip & jump away in Fargo. Maybe if some more Minnesotan's would pipe up we could have a get-together somewhere in the cities.

As far as the new system, here's what I went with, building it myself:

Antec SX-830 Case
Asus A7M266 motherboard
AMD 1.4 GHZ/266 mhz bus Athlon CPU
512 MB Crucial PC2100 DDR-RAM
40 GB IBM GXP60 7200 RPM Hard Drive
Gainward GeForce 3 video card
Plextor 24/10/40 Plexwriter CD-R/CD-RW
Pioneer S106 Slot Feed 16x DVD drive.
SB Live value sound card

Kinda funny that I have a 40 GB hard drive, and I only have two games installed on it, Aces High and Grand Prix Legends. But I just don't have time for any other games at the moment.

Damned, I'd like to say that I know when 1.08 is going to be released, but I don't. I talk to Pyro a lot on the phone, but there are some things he won't tell me, and that's one of them.  :)
