However, after reading some forums I discovered the reason why my PC 'blue-screened' when connected to unit was the drivers are out of date, especially if you are using Windows 7. Currently, I am awaiting for driver updates before re-connecting the unit to my PC. Luckily, I am able to borrow a Garmin 60 series unit - not the same, but does the job for now. Cheers.

Glad to hear you're happy with the unit. Have you used Vantage Point yet? My understanding is that recent firmware upgrades have improved the Triton series significantly.
