From the negative attidtude in your post I feel you should sell the
SN10 for cheap as fast as you can.You can get something with a SD card
slot, and I am sure somebody else will apreciate a great flight
computer.

New owner (Not by choice) of SN10 driven by Volkslogger. Was going to
tear out and replace with something newer but I thought Id try and see
how I liked it. First, the technology seems ancient, some type of 9
point connector (What happened to SD cards or thumb drives) and the
factory site seems incomplete and dated. Some of the downloads are not
compatible with windows 7 (surprising, I thought just about everything
was). What is really confusing is that the US dealer (Cumulus) shows
the SN10 packaged with a GPS that is no longer available (!)and there
is not a list of anything else that is compatible. Tried updating
files and such on the unit and so far a bit of frustration and the
paper manual that came with it is not much help. Seems odd for a
computer that lists for over 3 grand and doesn't even have a built in
GPS or meaningful display. Should I accept the fact that I have an
expensive paper weight or should I dig some connectors out of the used
parts bin and find a computer with an old version of Windows 95 and
keep at it?
Thanks
