a friend of mine just bought his first computer, he is very anxious to install FSX but he's not connected to the net. So, can you install and play fsx without a connection?

You can install, but until activated you're limited to 30min 'trial' sessions with reduced functionality.

You can activate by telephone:

Activate by using the telephone
You can telephone an Activation Center to obtain the help of a customer service representative and activate the product. Telephone activation might take longer than activation through the Internet. You should be at the computer when you call. Additionally, you should have your software product key. When you select this option, the Activation Wizard generates an Installation ID. You musy have this Installation ID to activate the product by telephone.
