Hi Daniel,

Yes, you may store the game, after you bought it, on any form of data storage device, be it a usb stick, a memory card, external hard drive, or just on a DVD-Rom, etc. No problem!

But the EULA still says that you're only entitled to make one installment, for one person, on one computer at a time. But where you store the software itself, the installer that is, is up to you.  

Not sure if it will run on that umpc though. 

Regards,
Fred

Gentlemen,
It does not seem likely that SS 2008 will give satisfactory performance on that device.

is intel atom not good enough for shipsim ? 
thanks for the reply though

sadly that umpc has a 1.3ghz or 1300mhz processor, ship sim require 2.4ghz and the graphics device probally won't be able to handle it either.

Not to mention no mouse or keyboard. How does one control the ship with a virtual keyboard? It would be like playing SS on an i phone.

I can hear the requests for ShipSim for IPad coming already..

Way ahead of you.

Same thing. They just stuck the designs on the photocopier and hit 'Enlarge'


EDIT: Seriously, I would like to see a cut down iPod/iPhone/iPad version. I think the people who make X-plane could do it...
