Gosh Bob, I answered you completely.

Yes, I write software. A lot of it. Many platforms over many years.
I'll be the first to say that it doesn't matter. I respect the opinions of people like you who are sailors and are experienced with the use of software. Being able to understand the nuances of creating an abstract class in C++ isn't as important as spending a few hundred hours behind the helm in bad weather at a time when you're relying on your electronics to assist you.
Really, instead of focusing on me, why not address the points that I bring up. You don't seem able to do that. Is panning chart-to-chart in iNavX easy for you? I mean, seriously, is it? Because I feel like throwing my iPhone into the water when I'm forced to do it. Course-up doesn't appear to be important to you. OK, I get it. Every other developer spent many hours putting it in so someone thinks it's important. Even Rich now is going to do it - and I doubt it's to satisfy me.
