Google have released an updated beta to Google Earth for mac, windows and linux.

The new version has these fixes:

<ul> <li>Language selection can now be done from the Options/Preferences under the "General" tab. Choices are English, Spanish, French, Italian, and German.</li> <li>You can now choose which way the mouse-wheel zooms under the "Navigation" tab in the options (hurray!)</li> <li>Improved memory management, does not require as much memory</li> <li>Automatic setting of memory cache based on machine RAM (improves performance)</li> <li>Fix to a problem where search/layer/places panes were missing if you had them turned off in GE 3 (I had that problem with my Mac version)</li> </ul> You can see more details about the new beta at the <a target="_blank" href="http://earth.google.com/earth4.html">Google Earth 4 Beta</a> Page. The new beta supports lots of great features like 3D textured buildings, which we will be offering as a solution for Architectural Projects and property developers to show planned buildings. Imagine showing your new housing project in google earth with all the surrounding satellite imagery!
