Cool, you guys confirmed what I was already thinking. Just wanted to hear it from people who actually know what they are talking about to make sure I was interpreting things correctly. I keep delaying myself on this to spend more and more on my new super-gaming computer, but now the computer is truly finished (bought a new desk chair for the computer last week instead of the flight sim software) I should be getting the sim next week and an Arrow 40/DX7 combo about a month after I get the sim. Just in time for winter! :-)
