The O' Club / Re: Prebuilt PCs

« Last post by Volron on Today at 04:34:46 PM »

What do y'all think about buying prebuilt PCs?  I'm in the market for an upgrade, and I have never built a PC before.  So the pros (for me) would be it's already assembled, AND I wouldn't have to drop the cash all at once.  I don't really have anyone close that I trust to help build a PC either, so all of my help would come from online.  Just picking your brains and seeking advice!

The O' Club / Richard Bong's P-38 Recovered!

« Last post by Shrike on Today at 04:11:11 PM »

Apparently, Richard Bong's P-38 was recovered recently.  Another pilot was flying his plane when it encountered mechanical problems and crashed in a jungle over Papua New Guinea.  I read the pilot survived.

I never realized he died on a P-80 test flight just a few days before the end of WWII.

Hadn't heard about this one.  Probably no one around here's cup of tea but it is interesting it looks like the Snail™ is starting to dabble a littler further towards sim.  Like aiming halfway on the scale between WT and AH.

Maybe this is why HT is exploring Vulkan.  I'd think AH would have to be dumbed down quite a bit to be console viable.

Aces High General Discussion / Hope All is Well

DFW had some bad weather last couple of days. 
Tons of power outages and some twisters touch downs out sorta in Hitech's area.

Hope it was just power outages and no physical damages.  Hope all are safe.
