Title: Your favorite version of Weatherscan
Post by: Mike M on January 21, 2008, 03:23:28 PM: Mine is the IntelliStar V.1, especially before February 2005. XL V.2 is a close second.

I remembered watching WxScan everyday, with beautiful Trammell music and the Comcast logo in the lower right.

Post by: lfmusiclover on January 21, 2008, 03:27:29 PM: My favorite is the XL v.2. That was the version we had here when I first discovered WxScan in 2003. I had had satellite up to that point, and of course you don't get WxScan on satellite.

Post by: beanboy89 on January 21, 2008, 03:34:39 PM: IS v1. Although the only one I've seen live was the IS v2, the IS v1 seems a lot less busy and actually looks half decent.
