(about 1 month ago, using version 5.0.5)
I got a student edition of The Sky when I did astronomy at university and
thought it was OK. When using it again recently I got frustrated with the
interface and after a quick search found Stellarium, which I think is *way*
prettier, easier to use, and it's open source.
Stellarium claims to be ready for professional use, projection and
telescope-control as well, but someone with expertise would have to comment on
that.
