Crazy man drops $230k on a flight simulator

SCI FI Tech | SCIFI.COM: "f you really, really want to fly, but the damned FAA won't let you anywhere near a cockpit due to your serious unreliability and the whole not being a licensed pilot thing, don't despair. There are other options. Just ask this crazy Aussie who deemed it financially logical to drop $230,000 on the fanciest flight simulator ever.

It's got 13 quad-core machines hooked up to his 42-inch Philips Ambilight TV, all running a rig sitting on top of a crazy hydraulic setup that moves with the action. Seriously, $230,000 is more than some flying lessons would cost? Seems to me if you have that much cash to toss around and you really want to fly, you can fly. But hey, as long as he's happy, that's what counts. Right? — Adam Frucci"
