To be honest FS9 runs beautifully on my current system and to be honest its quite outdated, but with PMDG doing the 777 & Aerosofts Airbus X release for FSX only and ORBX doing FSX only sceneries, water textures as real as they are in FSX, its growing more and more inviting, its the investing in a new PC that really puts me off....I would love to move over, but FS9 is sooo hard to fault in terms of performance, if you know FS9 well and look hard enough you can get some quite mouthwatering results for such an outdated sim. I had REX for FS9, and recently removed it and reinstalled Flight1s Flight Enviroment 2006 addon, the water and sky textures are just superb, as good as REX looks it also seems to have a few annoyingly unrealistic dawn & sunset sky colouring textures.....I will take that step up to FSX one day, it has to be done but as long as you (FT), UK2000, Aerosoft/Simwings keep thinking of us in the FS9 department i will keep using it until there is a major number of uncatered FS9 products that i want to use.
