    How about the Tranquillity station from Peter Hamilton's "Nights Dawn" trilogy?

    I second that. (OT: Never thought I'd come across someone else who'd read the Nights Dawn books.)

        Pick any planet/moon from Sci-fi movies/literature or in our solar system. I think living on a moon oribiting Saturn would be awesome. :) Marc

              As long as we're on mythology, I hear Calypso was a pretty friendly lady, and she has her own island to boot! I could deal with that.

                Wasn't Cassandra always whining about the future though? Sounds like she'd be pretty high maintenance.

                            I'll second that. Couldn't decide myself between Anacreonte or Terminus. I'd definitively never live in Gaia.

                                        Yeah but then imagine how bad you'd feel! She'd probably go off the deep end, and you be plagued by guilt for years. Granted you'd be able to meet countless hot chicks with your new fortune, but still... :)
