Although it was ported from a PC product (and parts of the interface show it), it's sharp and definitely more than a toy - most of the simulations are of military planes, including some that were designed but never built(!) With an SE/30, it's fast enough to seem almost-kind-of like really flying. However it definitely needs color to be worthwhile. I just got a NEC 3D monitor, with a Micron 8-bit card, which may be as sharp as you'll get without forking out the big bucks for an Apple monitor. It works well for me. John
