| I got an interface for a Serial Port with the unit. Can I upload the
tracks I've saved to my computer to print them out? If so, what software
am I going to require to view them once I get them onto my computer?

There are a lot of programs here that will do it:

The g7to programs and GPS Utility are two that I have had excellent luck
with.

| Garmins MapSource will do it of course, and Map Source Topo, presumably one
came with your Rino as Topo came with mine. But I use MapTech Terrain
Navigator to view, edit and manage my tracks from my Rino's. As I have a
significant collection of their state series CD's it's a natural for me, and
I like the interface. I like overlaying them on USGS topos. I also use
DeLorme's Topo USA for areas where I don't have the topo coverage from
MapTech. It's a cheap way of covering all of the US. Of course there are
ways you can get the topos for "free" and use shareware. I've tried some and
find it's more difficult than I want it to be.
