Another example is Flight Simulator Micro-Soft version. Fantastic
programe, wonderful documation, low cost($32.00). You really
do need the manual, but you WANT the manual to know where and
how to fly.........
That's what I feel about much of the ava. software.
Side Kick has an interesting ides too. Two prices one for copy
protected and another for non-protected.
