FSX Steam Edition sale

[toprob]

This makes a great back-up for our aging FSX retail DVDs, 10 years old and about 1,000 in computer years....

Currently $NZ$8.99 on Steam.

... +$5k for the hardware do not argue with me on this
My FS9 runs without CD's due to MS "cracking" their DRM with a WIN upgrade.
And runs on a now 12 year old computer.
Wish I could share the experience with you: smooth as butter performance, literally 1000's of add-ons.
A great flightsim experience.
Wish someone would make NZAA for it.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Charl, you can't buy a new FS2004 any more, so it's kind of academic for today's simmers.

That was why they call this place the archives ... the museum pieces in here , Yes my FS9 is still operational.

Be quick, only one left, a steal at USD89.99 + shipping!

If you really must have a cheap used one: we've all used the no-CD version for years, so it's only been in the drive once or twice! Pristine at 30 bucks or so, will last forever.

Cool.

On the subject of totally irrelevant things you can buy on the internet...

Although I brought Steam , don't think I will be going down that trail , only cost me $5 dollar , after the PC did the 'Funky Chicken' both FS9 and FSX look and are brand new installed without an issue, course know what has happened is both Greg and Marty gifted me P3DV3 looking at that, it is most impressive.

Thanks for the heads up, FSX:SE and REX Texture direct downloading now.

(even though I have FSX etc, still a bargain at £15)
