Product Description

It's nearly summer--time to gas up the family wagon and hit the road. But before setting off on a cruise across the North American landscape, your first stop should be at your PC. Trip-planning packages are relatively cheap and very useful for getting you to your destination--and helping you avoid pitfalls along the way. DeLorme's AAA Map'n'Go takes trip planning several steps further by helping you decide where to go in the first place. Along with about one million miles of U.S., Canadian, and Mexican roadways--plus automatic travel time and distance calculations--version 5.0 of Map'n'Go includes the Automobile Club's AAA TourBook and Points of Interest database, which lists more than 68,000 hotels, restaurants, campgrounds, and attractions. Mapping is database-intensive, and Map'n'Go has a giant database. So if you want the quickest performance, put the whole thing on your PC's hard drive--it'll take up 238MB. But unless you have a slow CD-ROM drive, the 50MB alternative installation used in conjunction with the CD-ROM should be snappy enough. DeLorme also offers supporting devices and software to complement Map'n'Go, as well as information updates via the Web!
