Says OS not supported and requires Silverlight. I would be interested in 
how you managed.

Regardless who makes it it's the best map software around. A GPS device 
with a 17 inch, at least on my laptop, screen. Way better than Tom Tom.

It's not that they don't support Linux. Linux doesn't support it. As 
I've said before I did manage to get it to work once, but a reboot and

boot the computer. Just more trouble than it's worth.
