Yes. The 2D/3D combos have excellent 2D and pretty good 3D but you need a
Voodoo II for excellent 3D. You might try the 3D on the card they give you
and see what you think. The Voodoo will add to the experience though. This
is true even with the best 2D/3D combo which is the Matrox Mystique or
Millenium G200.

You might want to verify this point in the flightsim group at either
comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.flightsim or the Microsoft server at
microsoft.public.simulators. Lots of FS 98 users in either group.

Hope that helps a bit.
