"Microsoft Flight Simulator has been around now for over 20 years! Every time the PC has improved in its performance, its capability, its graphics ability - MSFS has really been there to take advantage of those opportunites. I've brought with me a sneak preview of the next generation of Microsoft Flight Simulator. It's a really immersive environment that's being led by Windows Vista graphics and the next generation of DirectX. You can see the realism of the reflection...I'm actually going to drive...try to drive...with my XBox 360 controller plugged directly into my Windows Vista PC. You can really start to see the smoke from the boat..the independent and kind of live light that you see with the waves...with some of the birds and the trees that you'll start to see. This is the immersive environment that people expect from PC gaming with the next generation of Windows PCs...Windows Vista really starts to deliver. [flys by island in the sim] Off the west coast of Maui, it's not a bad place to be. The game developers actually have a little bit more than a year to continue working on the product, so the final product is going to be even better. But one thing's for sure, gaming is going to be awesome on Windows Vista."

Q: Will aircraft from FS2004 be compatible with “Flight Simulator X”?
A: Backward compatibly with existing 3rd party content is and has always been a priority for us, and we attempt to test as many add-ons as possible in order to provide the greatest level of compatibility.

That would be out of this article

But that will be very expensive. I am sure we need a new Windows or Linux version a new graphics card for runing MSFSx:%
