Sorry!

Really excels in providing schematic representations of the heavens and real-time animations. Starry Night is no match here.
I have Voyager 4 on order, can't wait to start using it.
For other users: I have a large repository of settings files in my public folder on my iDisk (planeten.paultje@mac.com). This collection consists of all settings from previous Voyager versions I have used.
