I have a copy that I purchased several years ago.  Mine is the 
compressed version.  I have both the Northern and Southern skies.  The 
set is just wonderful.  It makes a lazy cloudy night a night of 
viewing.  I especially like the ability to change the image to bring out 
details with the included Real Sky program.  It also works well with 
CDC.  I may never get to see some of the Southern sky through my scope, 
but I can sure see it on my computer.  The Northern sky is the original 
DSS1 set for the Northern sky  compressed 100:1.  The Southern sky is 
from the UK 1.2 meter Schmidt Telescope at Siding Spring Observatory, 
Australia.
