    Snip: I can enthusiastically recommend Coastal Explorer, it's a reasonable
    cost (<$375), and the charts can be downloaded for free."

    I would agree, very nice program. However I think it requires XP. I already
    have two laptops and use the 6 year old Dell, which has a nice 15" screen,
    for navigation - and nothing else, which I think is the way to go. It runs
    Win 98 and ChartView quite well right now. The other is for Wi-Fi etc.

    I believe CE requires the XP op system, also I was wondering about the
    processor speed. Is it practical/possible to run XP on what many would call
    an old computer? It would be dedicated to navigation only of course but what
    about the processor speed for CE?
