Jason, It's too early to assume a price at this time. As of this writing, your price assumption is inaccurate, and we don't (at this time) anticipate it being that high. From what I am being told, the estimation given to you was a lower number, and only an estimate. It could be even lower than what you were told! We'll talk about price further down the line, but to clear things up for the mass, your price assumption is too high at this time.

Excellent video, Alessandro! How often do you fly the MU-2?

Thanks for sharing, Jim! I never noticed until now that the developer of this aircraft did a nice little touch with the moving scarf. Pretty cool! It looks like you did it right by flying over that scenery in a bi-plane. Nice and slow, enjoying the view. 8)

Hey, Jason, You may be right (and it makes some sense) that the new drivers are helping you out on the windows side. One thing that I will correct you on though (just for new people and informative sake), is that X-Plane runs OpenGL and not DirectX. I'm not sure which version of OpenGL the Mobility card you have supports up to, but I'm sure the drivers help with the latest OpenGL technology as well.

Jason, I'm not aware of anything that will really speed up your sim. At this point you're starting to hit hardware limitations vs. what the newer versions of X-Plane 9 are capable of. Are you saying that you are running XP on extreme from your laptop with bootcamp already, or from another machine? I'm a little baffled on how your FPS may be effected so much between the two operating systems. Weird, for sure!

Much agreed, Dan! I think it's great that a culmination of so many talented parties are joining forces to create what looks to be a nice and organized community. I'm excited to see what the future here holds.
