that isn't just a 15 day trial? I am looking around the internet now and I keep coming across the trial version. Does anyone have the free version? If so, what site did you get it from?

Thanks!

I don't think there is a completely free version. Don't know if there used to be.
 
As an alternative, you may want to consider Stellarium?
 
I have a version that appears to be totally free, but it only works on real computers (no Windows-burners). If you click on 'More Information', though, the second page has a couple of links at the top to other 'Starry Night' stuff. I haven't checked them, but maybe they lead to a place where you can get PC stuff.

Thread 'In the early days of electricity, they didn't have wall plugs'
Hello scientists, engineers, etc. I have not had any questions for you recently, so have not participated here. I was scanning some material and ran across these 2 ads. I had posted them at another forum, and I thought you may be interested in them as well. History is fascinating stuff! Some houses may have had plugs, but many homes just screwed the appliance into the light socket overhead. Does anyone know when electric wall plugs were in widespread use? 1906 ad DDTJRAC Even big...
