    Unsure at the moment. I would guess the Plus/Pro/Ent. versions are more updated client sides than a server side solution.

    Entertainment. I fooled around with an earlier version a few months back. It's a lot of fun.

    And not to mention, think what kind of an angle you can get from the book repository without actually going there.

    Yeah. Padron makes some of the best cigars in the world. At least I think they do. LOL

    It is the family's last name that started and runs the company.

    Depends on what's available for building data and satellite photos. My house is very clear, but 10 miles north of me is horrible.
