What is Vista and what would make FSX especially for vista? And any idea how I can get? I assume its like a plug in or a new M$ feature.

Thanks :)

Vista is the next version of Windows. And it's very cool.

That being said, I believe that it has been said that FSX will work with Windows XP.

Edit: The MS provided FAQ states that Vista will NOT be required, but you won't get the full experience without it. Whether or not that will be true remains to be seen. However, seeing what I have about Windows Vista, I will be out there to get it the first day it's available.

Go to the Cineplex at http://cineplex.flightsim.com.

Watch the Microsoft keynote address that opened CES. They reveal some of the details about Windows Vista and its connection to FSX. We are going to be reporting more on that later this week. So stay tuned.

In short, Windows Vista is Microsoft's 64-bit operating system and a huge leap forward in computing. It will run on both today's 32-bit Pentium 4 systems as well as the 64-bit Pentium 4 dual core and AMD-64 systems. Watch the CES show and see for yourself. We are in for a real treat.
