Doesn't sound like this 'long awaited' release is much different than
FS2002 which had a
minimum of problems. Didn't even require a patch.

Uh-huh, remember I told you this when I said FS2004 isn't worth 3+gb
of HD space? I was right.

Hmmm - 3GB Hard Drive space is 'bout $4 and FS9 is about $2.25 per month
(assuming 24 months until next release). . .Yep - I think $2.25 per month is
more than a fair price for FS9.
