I'm surprised someone hasn't converted the large image over to something like the Google Maps navigation UI for better viewing. I guess I'll be attempting that when I get home from work.

Wondered why it was Silverlight, then realised the site is owned by Microsoft.

The site will use javascript if you don't have Silverlight installed, so it's not a requirement.

Just had the same idea. Downloading the full image now.
