Google Earth

This is pretty cool. It's basically a 3D globe, where you can zoom into the buildings and stuff, as a matter of fact you'll probably be able to find your house, or at least the general area where it is. Think the coolest thing was the grand canyon.

I'd just like to say that I downloaded this after Marx suggested it to me and it totally rocks. I found my house, which was somewhat cool. Then I found the pyramids, and that was amazing.

<.< I couldn't find the pyramids...I found my school though, it was even a 3D building oooooooo.

The pyramids kick bobba. I could never find the Sphinx though. That's how the area's labled. Like right down and left from the top of the Nile in Africa you'll see a big patch of desert, that's where the pyramids'll be.
You may be able to just search "Sphinx, Egypt", but I wouldn' gurantee it.

I keep tryong t o download it onto my laptop to use, but it won't open. I've check the security settings, firewall, ect; however, nothing seems to work. I've got 305 mbs(GB....can't remember) of Ram instead of 312. Could that be the problem?

Maybe. I wouldn't think that small a difference would matter much, but I guess it could.
I would expect that to just slow it down or make it freeze, but not actually stop it from opening.

Anything you think I could do to be able to access it or should I just give up and download it to my Aunts comp?

I can't see any reason on there that it shouldn't be working unless it's computer or screen size. The graphics card is pretty basic, so you should easily have that and 200 MB isn't very much all things considered.
I can't think of anything to do to make it work other than uninstalling and reinstalling it, but I dunno if that'd make much difference.

Wait:

Could that be it?

But.....I just bought this notebook last month. Its a toshiba sattilite celeron........figures thats what I get for getting the least expensive laptop in circuit city!

I dunno... It's not two years old and, atleast from what the Toshiba site stats says, it should meet all of the requirements. I really don't know why it wouldn't work.

Nope it didn't work, but ironically enough when I looked it up on Google, it's pretty easy to find if you know where the Great Pyramids are.

OoOoOoOoOoh. Pretty 3Ddedness.

Isn't it? Too bad they're not 3D on Google Earth, another cool thing about it, you can use it to fine all the comic book stores around your area with they're locations, how cool is that? *gonna try to find Chinese Food Restaurants that deliver when I get home*

LOL That's awesome. I think we only have one comic book store, sadly, but we've got two chinese take-outs... not sure if they deliver. You've inspired me.
