lol, could probably install it on an Ipaq. I was just looking at sizes of FS98, FS2002, and FS2004 i would check 2000 but i dont have it installed. FS98 is 80 Megabytes total. Fs2002 i dont know how much it is without addons, cause i have a few gigs worth of em. I am guessing FS2002 is about 1.2 Giga Bytes. and FS2004 is 2.4 GB and i only have a few addon planes.

You guys are making me drool Grin

! Now I am definately going to get this game tomorrow! But WHOA hold those horses! I saw the minimum requirements for FS2k4 on The Micorosoft website. I really don't care for frame rate, but I want the graphics! I am running a 64mb video card is that going to cut the bill or I might as well hold out from buying this SIm until I get a much faster and more powerfull rig! Something with this sort of power!

2.4 GB of processor speed ona PEntium 4
80 gig hard drive
128 mb graphics card

Its only in your mind, strong mind, strong soul and nobody can take that from you!

256mb graphics card! Shocked

Dude that is gonna cost around $256 dollars or even more then that! I want to save enough to buy a new rig that won't become absolete for atleast the next 5 - 6 years like the one I am using now, that has hold its own up to FS2k2 for 5 years!

I want to hold out until next year to see if they get the Pentium 4 up to about 3.5 gigs, then I am going to build on that. But I definately want to get a 128mb video card. I don't think that there is any possible way for me to put anymore memory in this computer to upgrade the graphics card again.

Sadly I was using a Voodoo 3 16mb video card I beleive when I bought this computer in '98. It was hot then, but more computer is crap now! But good enough for my brother to use!

But I am definately going to cop a copy of FS2k4 when I buy the new rig in the near future!
