The USGS site is a good one. Check out http://gisdata.usgs.net/ for more info from USGS.

Also check out TerraServer and the satellite imagery on
http://www.perrygeo.net/wordpress/?p=35

Searching through http://geodata.gov/ may reveal something. I usually get frustrated with that site but you never know what you'll find.

Note that very-high resolution imagery for North America as a raster/geotif may be a bit large. Connecting to a WMS service or Tile Map Server (like Google, Yahoo, VE) might be a better bet. I'm just getting started with MapServer so I really couldn't provide any instruction though.

    I am working on a mapserver project and need satellite or aerial
    imagery,
    preferably at a very high resolution.  Kind of like google maps
    satellite
    view.  I assume raster or geotif would be the ideal file type.  I only
    need imagery for North America.  Can anyone suggest a good, hopefully
    free, resource for this?

    Much thanks,
