I need more dolt friendly than powerful.

If you want really powerful GIS functions, Manifold is the best system, hands down. I would never use Arc or MapInfo again after using manifold and I used to be a MapInfo trainer. Both QGIS and Manifold can link to external SQL DBs so you could probably build layers of customer point data with pop-up labels that contain customer info or create thematic maps based on certain values, etc, if you are looking for quick visuals.

Like a map with data that I can splice in my map and data. I am a lazy man.

A bit of a learning curve but it's amazingly functional. There is also manifold which is dirt cheap as far as GIS is concerned.
