I used to use Microsoft Streets and Trips on my old computer.  I just got a new iMac with a 27" monitor, so I am looking for recommendations on a computer program to use for mapping directions when I travel.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks.

I have never had the opportunity to use Streets and Trips, but why opt for a "program" when you can use what is already available on line.....   Map Quest,  Google,  Bing,  Yahoo Maps.... etc.

Just curious....

I still use Microsoft Trips and Street.

However if I'm on the road and have my laptop and a connection (free one from somewhere close) I use MapQuest.   Their directions are a little easier to see at a glance.
