Rex, i just checked it on my Mac with Safari. It does come up and I 
quickly checked out Louisville. The emphasis ( color) for some of the 
streets , we would think are important, somehow fade into the 
background. Some are identified only by the number of the road ( state 
or national signs), not name. I think the google is easer to see and 
read, but  this is a first impression. just to let you know it works on 
my iMac , running 10.3.9 using Safari.
