Rip-off!
This factory-sealed unit only contained one of the promised three discs: attempts to complain to Starry Night produced no response. Avoid!

A user-friendly package for anyone who wants to know what is in the sky at night - at their location

This looks like a great package
This looks like a great package. Unfortunately this will not run on my version of Mac OS X, so it is not really of any use to me. There are two other discs in the package which are quite interesting, and as I only paid £1.21 I will not complain further. Do not purchase unless you have a Mac that will support the following - PowerPC applications. 'You can't open the application "install.app" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported' I will, however, try to source PowerPC from the internet, but I bet you I won't find it!
