The future of Microsoft Flight Simulator

Everyone has heard the news about the layoffs happening at Microsoft and I even seen news relating to laying off the Aces division which includes the Flight Simulator program. If this is true it is truly sad. Its one of the oldest products of Microsoft since 1982 and even older then that starting with Sublogic . I hope this is not the end.

 

What do you have to say about it ?

Here is a link that has some information about this . Click-here.

A word about the  Powershell ISE and PowerGui . I use PowerGui … I think that Powershell ISE is great but I wish that Microsoft would just let the 3rd party companies handle this . I know that Powershell ISE is a CTP app right now and I’m sure it will be great but Powergui is just awesome . I think Quest does a great job with these types of things .

Just my .02 cents .

Happy Post Holidays
