THanks guys........
Firstly, Rob, I already have Stellarium so have been playing around (see my first post)........might now try and download Voyager now and get a feel for it too.
For me, its to be used to identify the night sky and help me look for things. I guess, for the kids, it will also be a visual look at the stars, planets etc etc to gauge their interest...........
I did'nt realise the software packages were that hungry.
Although I have plenty of PC/laptop power, i am looking at a dedicated laptop 12" Lenovo with the new Ion/Nvidia chipset and graphics netbook. This will be what I take with me each time we go looking to the heavens...now not sure if this new netbook (to be released end Aug 2009) will have the power to run that kind of software...........ummmmmm
