Oggy, I'm almost a part B1 aircraftmaintenance technician, just need to do my internship and I'm done
I also did a year Aeronautical engineering but that wasn't for me.

A simulator engineer, that sound very interesting what did you do precisely?

Stefan, I've never quite grasped the advantage of a Turboprop.
Trubo props are a lot more efficient when flying at relative low speeds like 700km/h, above that Turbofans become more efficient.
Turbofans are the jet engines hanging under most passenger planes, they have a high by pas ratio and the big first fan some what works like an propeller.
Some of these engines can go over the Mach number and are efficient in the lower range.
With higher machs (2+) turbojet becomes more efficient but these don't run so well at low speeds.

They are now also busy with something in between the turboprop and the turbofan called Propfan (or UHB, ultra high bypass), some planes have them but there are some things that make turbofan better at the moment but you see the fan getting larger and larger.

If you want I can look into my schoolbooks to give you the full explanation.

Yes and they will drop 32bit support as well, so only 64bit and 128bit over some years.
Very very interesting....
To make it more interesting, there are programs coming that only can run on 64bit OS, microsoft exchange 2010 is one of them.
I also see Adobe making 64bit only versions quite soon, certainly when the programs demands more of the system then the older ones can provide.
So why support 32bit while the hardware needed to run it can also run 64bit?

Thank you Unlocker no need to look further then.

Yes Barrie the jet engine is a bit simpler but when you connect a propeller or gearbox to it then things also become that complicated.
Most the gearing you see in the front is to slow down the turning speed for the propeller, since the engine turns to fast.

Here is a example of a turboprop.

Thank you Tim

It seems you've missed the interesting things inside though.

According to Stefan in another thread, the flashes are made by Sunpak. No doubt he'll be along to confirm shortly.
Yes I did say that but I can not make it hard at the moment though.
Will try to dig up some evidence to support my claim.

The Sunpak PZ5000AF is so far as I know partically the same as the Pentax AF-540FGZ

Was not talking about the cat, that's quantum physics and so far as I know he was wrong though but that's another story

Was talking about the line as if you don't know then it doesn't exist for you.

This probably my failed attempted to bring use in the useless topic.

Oggy have you found your remote btw?

HG they can better revert that code from TV to AV since a lot more shoot in AV mode most of the time.

Thanks Bob, that makes sense.

I've no intention of upping the memory in the near future so 32bit it is then.

I can always opt for the 64bit version latter( I assume that as I've paid for a FULL version Microsoft will let me!)
So far as I know all AMD quads are 64bit so you don't have to worry a thing.

here is the list if you want to be sure.
AMD Athlon 64
AMD Athlon 64 X2
AMD Athlon 64 FX
AMD Athlon II
AMD Opteron
AMD Turion 64
AMD Turion 64 X2
AMD Sempron ("Palermo" E6 stepping and all "Manila" models)
AMD Phenom, often followed by X3 or X4 to indicate the number of cores.
AMD Phenom II, (45 nm) often followed by X2 or X3 or X4 to indicate the number of cores.

so I would recommend installing 64bit, it runs very well.
