IT IS NOT SURE
Baje!

Andrew Herd dropped an ominous hint on the 11th May when he wrote 'One of the greatest favors FS2004 did, for all that it apparently hasn't realized Microsoft's sales targets . . . '* The Microsoft Corporation is a business, not anorak heaven, and like all the rest, it's run by bean-counters who steer by the bottom line. Bill Gates will retain control only as long as he listens to their advice. The business ethic may be a sadly overworked oxymoron but its message is stark; lose the losers!

Last-minute marketing department FUD would explain the curious timing of their recent customer survey. In short, there are signs that the Golden Age of flightsimming is ending – may, indeed have already ended – in the corporate Microsoft mind. If true, then it's pointless to bang on about FS2004's faults in anticipation of their banishment by its successor. Even if it isn't, there is a strong argument for concerning ourselves, here and now, with preservation and conservation of the enormous libraries of FS2000/FS2002 add-on scenery, just in case FS2004 turns out to be As Real as It Will Ever Get.
