Is Desktop Dyno 2000 worth the $$$?

I was wondering if anybody here has purchased that Desktop Dyno 2000 software? Supposedly it allows you to plug in all types of engine motors and parts combinations on the computer to see how the parts you pick affect horsepower, etc. What are your opinions on this software program?

Of course it isn't 100% accurate but it is pretty close. One thing it does do is accurately show the effects of changine cams and other parts. Yes it is worth the money.

I think it is worth the $$. I'm real happy with my copy. Had it for two years now and have "dynoed" many motors. Like ratsmoker said, it's not as accurate as a real dyno, but close. If you have actual flow #'s on your heads it becomes more accurate.
