Well, the 2nd demo ran ok on my system and seeing as your system is mostly the same as mine (you have twice the memory and a slightly better graphics card) it should run ok. It depends what you want from the program. I turned off all aircraft AI, turned off all weather, had vehicle AI at 50%, and all other sliders at 75/80% and had a playing experience that was fine by my standards. I understand this may be due to flying over islands, flying over mainland will probably decrease performance, but I do most of my flying over the Greek islands so I'll probably do alright. Anyway, try it.  If you don't like you can always uninstall it and wait until you upgrade your computer.

Quite simple explenation for all those different prices, each country has there own taxes, import costs etc. Therefore it could cost a whole lot more in some remote location in siberia then next to the factory in the USA.

Another possibility in CERTAIN locations....... is that they are illegal copies.  :(

Market forces tend to also determine pricing.  Something is worth what people are willing to pay for it.  If no one will pay the price.... the item is not worth the price.
