Off Topic, but fantastic software

I tried it on my laptop (thought it might be useful for flight planning) but the video card's too old! Looking forward to trying it on the desktop when I get back to the office.

Great, a cheap, effective reconnaissance tool for terrorists. It does look good though.

I agree, been playing with it for a while. My little boy loves it, we go off searching for the Pyramids, the Great Wall of China and loads of other stuff.

Superb educational tool.

I've just downloaded Google Earth, after a friend told me about it. It's got to be one of the best programs I've ever seen.

Google does come up with some pretty interesting stuff. http//maps.google.com/ is great for mapping out locations, to/from, and distances. I'm in Canada so some of the maps are scarce, but elsewhere around the world they're pretty detailed.
