MSFS has never been a competition for SoW:BoB, horses for courses. It will be a sad day when M$ axes the FS completely, if it happens. I guess FSX didn't yield the "projected 20% growth of copies sold" or smt like that, or it may have sold "just" 700,000 copies instead over a million for FS2004. Beancounters don't see the bigger picture, and that sucks. I'm not a big fan of FS either, let's just say that "as real as it gets" is a huuuge overstatement. Actually, I think that that is what killed them, if it was as real as it gets they could've attracted hundreds of thousands of real pilots to it as well as the PC wannabes. As it is, it's only wannabes that fly it, real pilots prefer Sturmovik
