Starry Night Pro 4.5 - Can Anybody Recommend This Version?

Hi All,

I am currently running Starry Night Pro v3. Looking at the specs for
the Pro 4.5 version, it seems to be quite a step up. I'm considering
upgrading and would like comments (good and bad) from anyone currently
running Pro 4.5. I'm tired of waiting to see what The Sky v6 will
have to offer. Besides it looks like they are trying to play catch-up
offering a lot of the same features and graphics in Starry Night.

Version 4.5 users speak out!

Thanks
Rick

I tried it and found it very demanding as far as computer resources are
concerned. You really need to have a recent computer with a good
graphics card otherwise be prepared to wait...

Hi Shawn:

And a good review it is. You do need to make one more proofreading pass,
though, and clean up some minor problems--"then" for "than" etc. But all in all
an informative and interesting piece.
