Pros
4. CLOUD IMAGES ARE PROVIDED BY EXTERNAL SERVERS THAT WE DO NOT CONTROL. WE HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THE QUALITY, AVAILABILITY OR ACCESSIBLITY OF CLOUD IMAGES. IF FOR ANY REASON, THE QUALITY OF IMAGES IS NOT GOOD OR CLOUD IMAGES ARE NOT AVAILABLE OR ACCESSIBLE, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER.
Cons
Cloud overlay is one of several STOCK IMAGES. I've had this program for several years and the images are ALWAYS the same - they do not correlate to real time satellite info. The EULA explicits absolves gimmegoody of any responsibility - see above
Summary
The stock image of the cloud overlay gives the impression of current satellite visible info, but THERE IS NO REAL TIME SATELLITE IMAGERY AS IMPLIED.

to clarify:
95% of the time this program applies the SAME cloud overlay image - over a more than 5 year period the same image is applied. Occasionally, less than 5% of the time, a different image pops up that quickly disappears and is replaced by the image that i've been looking at for 5 years - laughable.
Desktop Earth (Anka.me) is one that I've just downloaded (for FREE) and seems to show real time clouds. I am not affiliated with Desktop Earth in any way.

you know what's more fun? reading thru all of the reviews and trying to guess which ones were written by gimmegoody - many are very similar

Pros
Cool picturs
Cons
It doesn't reflect correct time or date and very difficult to figure out how to correct it. Hitting reset doesn't fix the problem. Maybe I'm just not techie enough to figure it out
Summary
No a fan but would like to be

You're not an idiot. This software does not reliably link or update to NOAA servers as claimed.
