This is very good advice if you are prepared to hang on for a little while longer before deciding your purchase.

That is actually very good advice. Im still leaning towards 2020 for one main reason. It's been around long enough (hopefully) to have all the bugs worked out, vs a new release. As somebody said elsewhere, buying the software is the cheap part. Researching the harware has left me dizzy but if i am gonna do it i want to do it right. 

Thanks. Very helpful actually. Do you know if the add-on "passengers" is still around and available for msfs 2020 ?

Im new to the group and would appreciate any help. I want to get back into msfs. 
Back in the day i used MSFS 2004, windows xp. 

First, what desktop should i get that would work well as far as speed, graphics, etc. 
Second, what version of fs should i get and where can i get it ?

I do prefer the joystick rather than the more elaborate yoke and pedals so any advice on that is also appreciated. Thanks
