Review by Donnie Darko

There were all kinds of problems loading this on my laptop (running Windows Vista). It kept telling me that a component failed to load and the setup program would exit. I tried this over and over again with no solution. I contacted Microsoft Online and they talked me through a bypass that allowed me to load the program. We thought the issue was resolved, but when I tried to open the program it wouldn’t respond…. so back on the line with Microsoft. The tech remoted into my computer and had it up and running in no time. Microsoft techs by the way were very good, even though I knew they were from some far away country. They really knew what they were doing and did it very well. After the program was finally loaded and was able to operate I like it. It is very simple to operate and is just loaded with information. In just a short time I was able to load in our upcoming 5000 mile RV road trip and it’s great for telling you where you can get gas, when you should get gas, what RV parks are along the way and everything comes with interactive web links so you can link to them along the way (I tether my laptop to my GPS and to my mobile broadband access so I’m connected all along the route). I only gave it a three stars rating because of the hassels in getting it up and running, but the actual program is very nice when loaded. And it may have just been something on my system that gave me the problem in loading. This is a product I would recommend to friends. It is very functional and the GPS linking is awesome.
