Microsoft GPS

[Merv Curley]

Hi all

I suppose Google would work but...

My Microsoft Trips 2007/GPS has arrived from Factorydirect.  Now that I have 
spent $30, what do I need?  [ Do I curse Hugh or bless him for the $20 
coupon?]

Never having used a GPS, does it only work in the great outdoors?  It comes 
with a little suction cup, I assume this is stuck to a car windshield?

Next is the computer,  my old Thinkpad is W98,  Maybe a new hard drive with a 
Linux install?  Or a new small computer?  Hey this getting to be more 
expensive than a $150 GPS.

What Linux software is needed for the GPS.  I think Colin has said but I can't 
find the post.  

if someone can just post where to go to find this kind of info, I would be 
appreciative.  No need to spend time answering my niggling questions.

Thanks
