I've got a Garmin and have generally been amused, but somewhat disappointed by what it thinks it knows and doesn't know. It knows where Home Depots are located, just not the one that's 15 minutes from me (that's been in the same location since the late 1980s). It suggests I drive 2+ hours to

It is not so easy. Garmin, TomTom and others buy their maps from a couple of companies. TeleAtlas, Navteq etc. These maps are only updated every few years Right now if I punch in the street address for my church it sends me 1.5 miles down the road. Reason for this is that 6 years ago

I have been told that most of the nav systems in cars, pale in comparison with the ones you can buy off the shelf. A lot of this depends on who they are buying their nav systems from. I know some needs maps loaded from a DVD to make them work. Stewart At 04:29 PM 1/20/2009, you wrote: This

Thanks for the tip. I got the tip to run, but not work. I had to take it in and it seems the drive is toast. Btw, have Disk Warrior, but it's for OS 9. I thought I'd updated that thing. Guess I was wrong. Jeff M On Jan 19, 2009, at 3:42 PM, Tom Piwowar wrote: I'm running Disk Utility on
