    I beat you to it . Just kidding. It's pretty cool in my opinion. I'm glad they got around to porting it for us instead of the habitual battle with trying to get the win version to run with wine.
    All right, brain. You don't like me and I don't like you, but let's just do this and I can get back to killing you with beer. All New Users Read This!!! If you have a grub problem please look at GRUB MANUAL

    I like this! I managed to zoom in on my block of flats last night ... It was surprisingly clear. I couldn't do the same for the village I was brought up in though; the detail wasn't there.

    I 'push pinned' a couple of places myself fingal! spencerf, I found the building where I went to school in in your town, (Berklee School of Music), and could even barely make out the very window to the dorm room I stayed in!

    I wonder how long it'll be before the smaller towns and rural areas will have the same clarity as the larger metro areas. My town in South Carolina is still mostly a blur although most of Greenville, SC can be seen very clearly.

    it would be very interesting to know the number of downloads of the linux version after a few weeks.

    I was playing with this software last night, and it seems really nice. Not much good for around here in Newfoundland though. My community didn't even show up lol. With a population of just under 700, it's not really a wonder why.

    I'm convinced Google is the antichrist. Running around, distributing wonderful, free things. Right now on my linux workstation I'm monitoring, in real time, the flights going in and out of LAX. Click on a moving flight, it shows altitude and speed.

    Brrrrrr......
