Streets & trips 2008 was a very good buy, at the time. I got it when I was using Windows XP, it also worked with Vista. But, when I went to Windows 7, I lost it. It would not work with Windows 7 so I picked up the 2010 version, which works great with Windows 7. I am finding other programs I have purchased also don't work with Windows 7, but I guess that's to be expected when you move up. Anyways, Streets & Trips 2010 is a great program and well worth
the money. Also have a GPS Tom-Tom XXL, which works great with Streets & Trips. |
