Yep, lots of detail, and pretty slow if you can see too much at once.

I use them for zoom levels less than 128 or so.  For higher zoom
levels, I use roads from NOAA and states, counties, railroads, water,
etc shapefiles from nationalatlas.gov.  Some dbfawks for these are on
my web page at http://www.eng.uah.edu/~jdw/xastir/ .
