Flight Sim is No Longer

Microsoft has laid off the workers that update and develop flight simulator.
You may not have ever played Flight Simulator, and you may never. But
Flight Simulator played a huge role in Microsoft's history. For a computer
to be able to run early versions of Windows, Flight Simulator was the
standard. All PCs had to be able to run it. Over the years, Flight
simulator has become more elaborate and with the latest version, X, there
have been many headaches. Since the economic downturn has affected
Microsoft, they have decided this culture, almost, is unimporatnt.
Personally, I think they should rehire the workers to keep a vital part of
microsoft alive. X is still available, but there may never be another
version. Many of you don't care. Let me add in a personal experience: I
am slowly transitioning to a new Mac. I still have my PC only because I
enjoy FS. Now I am saddened that Microsoft is letting go what once was so
important to them.
