Stopping By To Say Hello

Hey Guys,

Finally made it home from my last work hitch. Now I have the fun of moving which unfortunately means that I will not be able to fly this time home. I got home too late yesterday (flight into Albuquerque) and will be moving next Saturday, traveling the 2 Saturdays following that, and then will be back in Alaska. So I am effectively not going to be able to join in the fun again until August 5th most likely. Glad to see everyone is still involved and keeping SNATF going. Number 23... wow... did not know if this would take or not when I first conceived the idea with the VC81 gang.

On the positive side of all of this.... I am in the process of building the Monster Computer Image (FX-60 AMD- overclocked and water cooled, 4G RAM, Dual 320G HD's, & the new NVidia 7950GX2). The rental house we are going to be living in while we build for the next 6-8 months has 9M down & 1M up broadband! This should allow me to host 24-30 Player coops with ease. So once things settle down and I get back on track I plan on hosting a Coop Night once every 6 weeks. These will be dedicated to historically accurate missions and plane sets. This is not to compete with SNATF and will be held at another dy and time. So I will keep in touch and hope to join you again in the near future.

Well my "Old One" is a Dell Laptop- 2 year old XPS machine. It works decent but is nothing spectacular. I will be leaving it in Alaska for use up there. Bad thing is that I will only be able to use the Monster Puter 1/2 the time i.e. when I am home. Not sure if the laptop is going to Run BoB which is to be released this November. I may have to upgrade laptops as well after that. Especially in light of Windows Vista, DX10, Flight Sim 10, and BoB all coming in the near future. So possibly next year I will be getting a new laptop but will have to wait and see. Will have to make sacrifices and supplications to the spousal unit first. The Computer I am building has already cost me new furniture & washer/dryer. So given recent history I am looking at an appeasement ratio of 3:1 with her's being the 3 :lol:

Plus I am planning on purchasing a sailplane next year... I maybe kowtowing for a year for that one...... Image

LOL- actually my wife is really decent when it comes to this sort of thing. I can't think of anything that she has really objected to with the exception of the sailplane but I believe I have finally won that battle of the wills thru attrition :P

See you guys soon...
