ya it is a very nice system I have had the pleasure of trying out the one for the excavators and also the motor graders and let me tell u it is about as realistic as u can get without actually being on the machine. I have also used the ones made by manitowoc for their cranes and they were just plane awesome the seat is on a base that can move side to side as you swing and it also bounces and moves like you would in the real machine.

Pretty neat, i have used them at quite a few equipment shows, but no way will you ever find me wasting my money on one.
I could see a equipment training school getting one for the newbies to use before they let them run the real ones. Might pay for its self quickly with less wear and damage to the machines...
