WinkiePinkie,
Oh my, my first post. My name should explain it all. As far as the MS2004 stuff goes, check out
http://www.avsim.com. In there somewhere you should be able to find "Project Magenta", (a company thats make products to turn lots of PC's into a cockpit).
Plus there some very extensive home-built cockpits which look good to my SLF eye. Right now, the nicest plane for MS2004 in terms of simulation is probably the PMDG 737, see them at

It's always good to hear what the real guys say about our toys. Almost always it's positive, however it's always assumed that we know they're just toys
