After
10 years and $230,000, Australian hobbyist Matthew Sheil has created his
very own personal Boeing 747 flight simulator. 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?
