Has anybody seen Microsoft's World Wide Telescope yet? They claim it's Mac compatible, but you have to have BootCamp and Windows loaded to run it. I think they...
Duane, No, M/S is now pushing its new OS, Vista. I would think anything new they put out would be for newby Vista first and XP (M/S Windows Classic??!!) a far...
I downloaded WWT and installed it last night on my MacBook Pro. Because of the memory requirements, and the demands on video, I ran it under Boot Camp with XP...

Yup. Anyway for what it's worth, it does run under VMFusion on a 2.16GHz 24" iMac, but I had to install .Net and turn on the experimental 3D Graphics support...

Hi Folks; I updated my web site with some new images for 2008. http://www.outcastsoft.com/AstroImages/AstroIndex.html The weather has been horrific this year...

Hi Ralph, ... Equinox Image can read in (or expose) a spectrograph image, draw a graph and log the data in a text file that can be imported into a spreadsheet...
Hi Darryl, Yes, I was thinking of Equinox Image, but the control function for the spectrograph is sort of critical -- based on what I observed, you have to be...
... I have never seen a Mac SDK or driver for the spectrograph but I will ask SBIG. If they do have that available then I could probably code something - it...
