Thanks for the comments!

Theres pros/cons with x-plane, just like with FSX and FS9.  X-Plane, in my opinion, really excels in the low-and-slow flying arena; both in flying, and the default graphic isn't too bad for the sore eyes.  There are still things, such as the lack of high-quality cigar tubes, that isn't quite caught up to speed with MSFS.  Its definately worth 29.99 though. 

Later this year, X-Plane 10 should be released... which may quite possibly revolutionarize a lot of things.
