    Yes, you just need a usb converter and you are done. It would be better if you buy two identical one, just for syncronizing purpose.

    Thanks for the new SimTools v2.1 update, but how we should proceed with its installation? We download the 2.1 update and then direcly overwrite the 2.0 version?
    Or we must follow a different procedure?
    And for those who, like myself, have bought a professional license, the update to version 2.1 also maintains the license?

    @speedy, big thx for checking everything!
    It's always nice to have confirmation that things are fixed!

    @obobo, No re-registration is necessary. :thumbs

    @Doctor Kruntz, Great Question!
    You always update SimTools by simply installing the update over the top of the original installation.
    All of your settings will go untouched, no need to re-setup.
    (unless otherwise noted)

    Thx guys!
    More fun stuff to come!
