A little off topic... but every time I hear Microsoft Flight Simulator, it reminds me how hardware vendors used to use the game to test the hardware compatibility. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_PC_compatible
"At first, few "compatibles" other than Compaq's models offered compatibility beyond the DOS/BIOS level. Reviewers and users developed suites of programs to test compatibility; the ability to run Lotus 1-2-3 or Microsoft Flight Simulator became one of the most significant "stress tests"." |
