I'm calling FSX a complete failure after over 10 years and 5 gaming pcs/laptops. Just poorly written I'm afraid...bad graphics engine.

A good magician never blames his wand. Its a shame that you feel that way and you have wasted your money on machines that were never going to run FSX well. A fantastic gaming machine is not what is required by FSX as has already been pointed out along with the reasons why.

I don't believe it is a badly written piece of software when compared to the other sims, and its focus was clearly on aircraft flight dynamics over having pretty detailed scenery, which lets face it at a few thousand feet you not really going to need to see or can see someone picking their nose on a street corner. With the addition of add-on scenery it does however really immerse you in to some detailed landscapes and the airports are like a piece of art. Its our expectations that are quite often the issues not the software or its perceived lack of performance.
