I just saw an ad regarding FSX Gold Edition. For $49.99 a pop, I'd like to know if it's worth it. Comments anyone?

I would expect it's an even heavier iteration of FSX that will slow our computers to an even slower rate of execution. That, or it has just one airplane in it that nobody really wants, anyway. Sorry I'm so glum; it just ain't been my day...

My system: AMD Phenom 9500 cpu, 2 x eVGA e-GeForce 8800GTS Superclocked vidcards (640Mb DDR3 each), Zalman "sunflower" 9700 fan, Gigabyte GA-M57SLI-S4 mobo, 4Gb G.Skill PC2-6400 DDR2 800Mhz RAM, 2 x Sony 20X DVD writers, Thermaltake Toughpower 850W modular p/s, 7 x 120mm fans, Windows XP Home and SP3, 2 x 250Gb Western Digital SATA-300 HDs (1 for apps, 1 for storage and precious files backup), CoolerMaster CM 690 case, NOD-32. Won't run FSX. Locks up a lot with FS9, too.

FSX Gold is simply FSX Deluxe and Acceleration in one bundle. No mention of any 'extra' content beyond what you would get if you purchased them seperately.
