Since I couldn't find any news articles confirming purchase of F1GP2 in
the US, let me be the first to celebrate (on my news server)!

It has arrived.  The New Era for this newsgroup in the US is at hand!!

This morning, here in California, I received my pre-ordered copy of
F1GP2 from Spectrum via second-day shipment.  I didn't have time to do
much more than calibrate my T2 and do a lap around Monza (OK, I briefly
visited Monaco too!), but it seems to work acceptably, even in SVGA, on
my Pentium 120 and Diamond Stealth 64 VRAM 3000, as long as the sky and
a few other textures are turned off.

I'll probably have a lot more to say as I get to know the game.  I never
played F1GP1, but I've been having fun with ICR2 and NFS while I awaited
F1GP2.

Anyway - cool sim!!  Thanks Geoff (& everyone else who worked on it)!!

 -David.
