But in the Denver metro area, DeLorme Street Atlas USA didn't show the newly completed Northwest Parkway, whereas Microsoft Streets and Trips did-proof that even with 268,000 new roads, you're bound to miss something.

In downtown Boston, for instance, Street Atlas USA displayed dead-end streets and alleyways that Streets and Trips didn't show. Better than Microsoft Streets and Trips? Yes, for the most part, but not always. The DeLorme Street Atlas USA database is quite comprehensive. It's not as intuitive as Microsoft Streets and Trips 2006, but it displays a lot more restaurants and other points of interest. Quibbles aside, DeLorme Street Atlas USA 2006 is a fine mapping program for serious road warriors. DeLorme Street Atlas USA devotees should upgrade, and anyone plotting a Kerouac-style adventure (or even a family vacation) should give DeLorme Street Atlas USA a close look. DeLorme Street Atlas USA 2006's street-level maps provide more detail, including additional restaurants and alleyways, than those in Microsoft Streets and Trips 2006, which is easier to navigate. It also has a beefed-up database with more than 268,000 new streets and roads. Version 2006 brings some useful upgrades, including a top-of-the-screen toolbar that makes it easier to create routes, set options, and perform other basic tasks. However, it's overkill for cross-town jaunts where a free Internet mapping service such as MapQuest or Google Local would suffice. DeLorme Street Atlas USA 2006 is a very good mapping program for planning short or long-distance road trips anywhere in the United States.
