lol, could probably install it on an Ipaq. I was just looking at sizes of FS98, FS2002, and FS2004 i would check 2000 but i dont have it installed. FS98 is 80 Megabytes total. Fs2002 i dont know how much it is without addons, cause i have a few gigs worth of em. I am guessing FS2002 is about 1.2 Giga Bytes. and FS2004 is 2.4 GB and i only have a few addon planes.

You guys are making me drool  ;D! Now I am definately going to get this game tomorrow! But WHOA hold those horses! I saw the minimum requirements for FS2k4 on The Micorosoft website. I really don't care for frame rate, but I want the graphics! I am running a 64mb video card is that going to cut the bill or I might as well hold out from buying this SIm until I get a much faster and more powerfull rig! Something with this sort of power!

2.4 GB of processor speed ona PEntium 4
80 gig hard drive
128 mb graphics card
Its only in your mind, strong mind, strong soul and nobody can take that from you!

:o 256mb graphics card! :o

Dude that is gonna cost around $256 dollars or even more then that! I want to save enough to buy a new rig that won't become absolete for atleast the next 5 - 6 years like the one I am using now, that has hold its own up to FS2k2 for 5 years!

I want to hold out until next year to see if they get the Pentium 4 up to about 3.5 gigs, then I am going to build on that. But I definately want to get a 128mb video card. I don't think that there is any possible way for me to put anymore memory in this computer to upgrade the graphics card again.

Sadly I was using a Voodoo 3 16mb video card I beleive when I bought this computer in '98. It was hot then, but more computer is crap now! But good enough for my brother to use!

But I am definately going to cop a copy of FS2k4 when I buy the new rig in the near future!
