Summary: Don't purchase! Get Rand McNally
Review: Everytime I enter the name of a city this program tells me "no match". I then go through the cities listed and find the one I want. I have had to do this with large and small cities. I will go back to using my Rand McNally 1997 Triper Maker as it works when I enter a town.

Summary: not impressed
Review: I bought this product because I am a subscriber to National Geographic and have always been impressed with their magazine and maps. I was a little dissapointed with this product, in that it does not always find the towns and streets I am looking for, and the searching methods are a bit unuserfriendly. I also do not like the fact that it is CD-based, with no option to install everything on the hard drive. I don't use it much because I don't like searching for the CD everytime I want to map something. It's easier to look up a map on the internet.
