Kinda sorta neat, Full 360 and zoom with mouse wheel. Not bad digs if you can afford it. Not for me though, no couch, TV, or desk for the computer. But even more painfull, no fridge for the Brewskis.
If you look straight up you can view the famous God's outstreched hand to Adam. Am I wrong or is the dude two paintings down from that one Moonin The Good Lord?

I think the reason there are no comfortable seats, is so that those guys will get on with their business and elect a Pope.
 
Good link thanks....I think Micheal had a thing for asses?
 
And a lot of controversy in the 80's when it was restored. Apparently its brighter now (colour wise) than it ever was.
The weird thing is that they only allow natural light in so depending on the time of day it can be kind of dark in there. The lights you see are for special occasions such as what is going on now. Or for emergency lighting. And they do not allow pictures with guards walking around telling you to watch the cameras. Or something like that. I don't speak Italian. Or maybe it was Popeish...... Also it is also amazingly crowded in the room. And it take a hour plus walk through the Vatican Museum to get to the Chapel.
