Ahh, chip nostalgia...

To not end up as a complete Intel FB I did run AMD:s from the 1.33 T-bird to the Athlon 64 3000. I was the Core 2 Duo that made walk the broad path again
My first foray into flight sim was actually an Amiga 500 with half a meg of ram, it came with a basic Flight sim called Bob Dimmermans (I think) FA-18 Interceptor ... wow, all of a sudden I was defending the US and making carrier landings and shooting down Migs, I only wanted the Amiga to sort of do a data base for all my CD's an vinyl records.

This was unheard of.

After that I bought a PC from a guy in Aberdeen, Intel 33MHz with 2 MB (yes 2MB of ram) and a hard drive so small it would not hold a modern days OS swap file, but that got me into Falcon 3.0, Fleet Defender and lots of others.

Have been building my own ever since.
