New cube! (and need a virtual megaminx link)

[Narraeson]

First of all, my 2 Rubik-brand Rubik's Cubes are starting to go bad. I don't know why, they're just slowing down, locking up, exploding a LOT, etc. I'm thinking of getting an FII. I tend to run algorithms together (start U when I'm still on R2) and speed up in general. Anything better than FII for me?
Second, I'm getting a Megaminx on Christmas, but I want to start practice early, anyone know where a good virtual one is? Doesn't matter if it's a download or not.

try http://www.ultimatemagiccube.com/
its what i used before i got my first megaminx.

Thanks. Much simpler than I thought.

Dayan Guhong is the cube of the moment, can't go wrong with it. (If it's pre-lubed with Lubix then it will be near perfect)

THIS might help. It's a guide I'm putting together.

Here is a online virtual Megaminx. I find it easier to use than UMC.

Hm, UMC says DirectX SKD isn't 'properly installed' and Owen's link is just white space..

That's true...but you never know when your internet may be down for some unknown reason.

figured i'd ressurrect this thread rather than start a new one.
Ultimate magic cube will not run on my POS pc and i find the other megaminx simulator a little difficult to use. are there any other virtual megaminx applications out there? i've done quite a bit of searching with no luck so i was hoping you could point me in the direction of one. i'd prefer one that was download not internet based, but either will work.

F-II is pretty good.

I saw the Dayan GuHong reverse corner-cutting, came in my pants and ordered five, so you're a bit late..
