No, this includes all the people that had to reinstall it 500 times because it breaks on every update.

I've used google earth for a lot of things including modeling wind farms with 3D turbines. Sketchup is a good add on and has a ton of 3D models ready to use. I didn't have to make my own turbines. I wish they would add more mapping utilities for overlaying things like townships, section lines, etc. A lot of that kind of data is available from the State governments but I have have a for-pay program called Global Mapper to make good use of it.

I have no complaints. Google earth has a lot to offer map makers and it's free.

"Grant Turismo 5"

That's a new game I haven't heard of. Is the racer named Grant?

So many computers with additional services running, with Google auto update and Google Chrome just about to be pushed with EVERY update. Bloatware. Oh well.

P.s. NOTHING is really free especially from Google

You suck! Armenia is an ancient country. The first Christian country actually. The Kardashians are Armenians and many other famous people. The Armenians are second only to Jews and they don't like each other very much too.

Armenians are not too fond of Azerbaijanis either, typically... They did have a fairly nasty war some years back if I recall.
