Glenn, it's simple.

Just add GSAK and your favorite mapping program, bake for 1 hr. at 350 degrees, and it all works automagically.

I am trying to put together a recourse page on how to setup a laptop for geocaching. What works, what is needed and how you do it.

I know that Myotes navigates pretty good with Street atlas, Steve brown generally has more computer power running than the space shuttle, Bernie managed to make it to Canada and back and I cant get anything to work right half the time.

I cant get GSAK to talk to the GPS. Some folks quite trying and use mapsource on the laptop for waypoint loading and management. I bet there are a million different setup variations. If I cant get this stuff to work right, I bet there are quite a few folks that haven't a clue as to where to begin.

So, What works and what is in y'all "bag of laptop tricks"
