Horrible |
|
You first have to force it to work in XP. Compatibility mode. Then be prepared to be disappointed with the maps you see. Simple scans of old maps. Complete with creases and dog ears. No searches for places. A cheesy Win 95 app with little usefulness. Mired in a 640X480 view. Primitive panning and zoom. Bad all around. |
