I have been dealing with this issue for almost 15 years. Every time I get an upgraded computer, the next patch busts me back down. I started out with a Gateway 2000 with 256mb of ram. I started playing a WWI sim but forget the name. Then went to Warbirds. When Warbirds II came out I gutted the Gateway and went with an AMD board. Then went to Aces High after I watched it through demo. I then got this Dell Dimensions XPS Generation 2 back about Sept 2003. When I couldn't play Pacific Fighters in Excellent Mode, I gave it up. Been stuck here ever since! I refuse to pay $$$$$ every time a new game comes out. My loss but just don't have the extra cash to throw away on gaming computers every six months. This computer has been fine with no problems but just lost my heatsink fan on my ATI 9800 video card over the weekend. May add another 1gb stick and a new video card but thats it.

The evolution has not changed in over 100 years of anything. When you purchase it, its out dated before you get it in the car!
