I'm tempted, but then I got to do a crash course on learning how to use the dang thing...
Garmin's are SUPER easy to use. Bobbie is horrible with those kinds of things but she jumped right in and figured it out almost instantly.

The basic "tell me how to get to this address" bit is the easiest. You start with the state, then the town, then the house number and, finally, the street. You don't even need the zip code.

Some of the cool features are buried a little too deep in sub-menus, IMHO, but once you remember where they are, it isn't that bad and you get used to it.

Nope. That would be geometry.

i took an entry level stats class, i hated it. you had to buy the teachers book, which just so happened to be the most expensive one.
The materials for this class are GREAT. Our book is a little cumbersome with all of the exercises and whatnot BUT the web interface ROCKS! It is super easy to use and is really, really helpful for math idiots like myself.
