It is good, oh yes...

Well, I must admit, since the advent of FSX, and my new computer that is turning out to be a bit substandard, I have been shying away from the FS community for the past couple of months.

Now I just need to work out how to house everything an how to make a cordless keyborad and mouse reach across twelve feet!



I have a Microsoft cordless keyboard and mouse and it does OK for that distance. Not much more but 10 - 15 ft is just fine. If I don't get good reception it has a reciever on a cord so I hang that across my desk chair. Moves it about 3 ft closer to my keyboard.

All you need now is a homebuilt cockpit setup to put in front of your TV.

WOW!!!

Nice mun!

tho ive always wondered whether having a larger screen is better than having a higher resolution. ::)

Im savin' up for SLI 2.0 and Higher-end DX10 hardware, along with that 30inch Dell lcd screen.  im gonna be playing stuff like crysis and GTR2 as well as FSX. ;)

But dude, that stuff u got rocks! ;D

P.S. about ur cordless keyboard and mouse, (assuming the reciever and stuff is usb) get usb cable extensions and place the reciever next to the TV! ;)

It means that no matter how much crap you put on it, no matter how much you bore it out, no matter how fine you tune it, a 289 Ford will still get it's lunch eaten by a 426 Hemi...   ;)
