Want me to put it on a CD for you, Nightrider?  I'll be glad to do that for you.

No, that's not necessary.  I can't see that this is something that I would use much if at all.  It might be neat to see it work once though...

I'll send it to you.  

If I don't forget.  You may have to remind me in email.

Seriously, there is no need to send it.  I probably would never use it and the small amount of curiousity I might have to see it doesn't justify the cost of creating the CD and shipping it to me...

I'm downloading on the backup.  I'll install it, give it a run, and judge whether you need it or not.

That does look pretty cool...I downloaded the google earth program and even though I have a decent computer the program crawled.  Does this one let you put in your own coordinates?  That one didn't.

Like NR said though it's something I don't mind seeing to see how it works but wouldn't use it so not worth my HD space.

Yeah well, KeeKee, this one crawls also! LOL   I too had downloaded Google Earth and this one is pretty much like it.

I have it on backup and I think the problem may also be the low RAM and old graphic card.  It looks like a terrific program but it really eats the resources. Another thing, it's not for dial up.  For some of it at least you need internet interaction, I think some stuff/features are only online.  For some of the things I tried it asked for access to the internet.  

All in all, Nightrider I don't think you would be happy with this program.
