Having moved away from my original group, and finding PbP games have a tendency to peter out, I've been looking at virtual tabletops.

I've spent a little time playing around with Gametable (http://gametable.galactanet.com/) and MapTool (http://www.rptools.net/doku.php?id=maptool:intro) and of these, I think I prefer the second.
Screen Monkey (http://www.nbos.com/products/screenmonkey/screenmonkey.htm) also looks like it might suit.

Does anyone here use one or more of these? How does it work out? What other programs do you reccomend?

I'm one of those Mac types (OSX 10.4), and due to a series of bad decisions I'm living out of my overdraft until autumn, so I'm all about the free things in life.

Before someone mentions it, OpenRPG has become anthropomorphised into something that dissaproves of my computing choices and dislikes me personally. Something red, with wings.
