(SNIP) When you get the PC, do a clean install of Windows XP (home or pro
seem to work fine) put your nav stuff on there and not much else. Keep it
clean and simple and do all your other stuff on another laptop.
A well crafted navigation program that conforms to the Windows API does not
need to run "alone" in the machine. I run constant mail, browsing,
navigation and WiFi without any problems on an old A31 ThinkPad. Quality
navigation software is just another application, no special handling is
required. Excel is extremely important to a creative stock analyst but you
don't see them running it alone.
Sometimes application programmers get co-opted by their own technical
elegance and write marginal code. If your Navigation program breaks enough
to warrant running it alone, my advice is to get a new navigation program.
