At first I was going to go smaller and not spend quite so much, but I thought about the way PC gaming is and especially sims, so I said screw it, I'll just deal with malnutrition for a few months and go all out. Then I can use the computer for the next several years while saving up for whatever new thing comes out. As I always say, "It's best to have Lou Rawls and not need him, then to need Lou Rawls and not have him."

That sucks. I ordered mine from Amazon as well, and it promptly arrived 3 days later. I order many things from Amazon so I know my number will come soon.

I'm ready to dive head first into it.

Well actually, I have a PS3, Xbox360, and a Wii. I love my console games as well as my PC ones. Then again, I have a Mac AND a PC too. Basically, I'm a man with diverse tastes.

Computer: Intel Core i7 Extreme Processor 965 (4x 3.2GHz/8MB L3 Cache) Asus P6T Intel X58 Chipset 12 GB [2 GB X6] RAM NVIDIA GeForce GTX 295 Peripherals: Saitek rudder peddles X52 Pro Flight Control System TrackIR 4 Pro Sure I've had to live like a penny pinching hermit for 4 months, but I think it will be worth it. I've done worse for less. HA HA!

Just wanted to introduce myself. I've been reading the forums for a while, but I just finally joined up. I've been playing sims since F-19, but kind of got out of it for a long time. I think Tornado by Digital Integration was the last sim I really wet my pants over. Then I read about Black Shark last December. It reawakened the sim-geek. So for the past three months I lived off ramen noodles and water just to save up for a computer to play this. After spending 3 grand on a computer and peripherals, I'm ready! Except for the fact that my computer won't be here until next week. Other than that, it's good to be back and it's good find a community. :thumbup:
