>> remember that high FPS equates to the ability to run at higher resolutions.

Good point. Since I'm already running at fairly high res, I tend to forget this. [edited] Multi monitor support is another item on my wish list.

>> Still waiting for TRI's "Fly!"

Just yesterday a pilot friend of mine and I were bitching about the delay (and the hype) of Fly. O'well, seems that I will have ample excuse to buy a new PC with Rampage and all the other goodies in September.

>> digital imaging and video editing programs, etc

If you use Photoshop on a Mac and an NT, you will see the difference in configurations. Mac takes about 4 hours of hardware "set up" and you are done. NT will take 11 hours of set up and will need readjustment every so often. It is possible to transfer the short comings of NT into a driver/hw combination for minimal cost and capture another good niche of the market (a bigger niche than DFP support would provide anyway).

In addition to above, if full OpenGL and multiprocessing is supported, then video editing will be a sych as well.
