Sorry for digging up old wood but I have been considering adding these books to my library.
I currently use Sky Atlas 2000 and Night Sky Observers Guide as my primary sources. They have served me well but I would like to get something with more stars on the chart. SA2K goes to mag 8.5 and I believe Uranometria goes to mag 9.7 . I was just wondering if there was enough of a difference to justify the cost.
My ultimate purchase would be Millenium Sky Atlas but those are pretty tough to come by.
