Good introduction to LYN members. I just get to know malfreemaps from this thread, rather than malsingmaps which I don't visit that often.

As for MapSource, I recommend using 6.13.7 as 6.14.1 is redrawing map at snail pace. Also, create registry entries for setting preferences so that you can have the best experience exploring map for the first time. You can (or should) import this registry file before installing MapSource.
CODE
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Garmin\MapSource\Products]
"InstallDir"="C:\\Garmin"
"Folder"="MapSource"
"SourceDir"="C:"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\GARMIN\MapSource\Settings]
"AreaUnits"=hex:01,00,00,00
"DepthUnits"=hex:01,00,00,00
"DistanceUnitsType"=hex:01,00,00,00
"ElevationUnits"=hex:01,00,00,00
"GridId"=hex:0f,00,00,00
"HeadingType"=hex:02,00,00,00
"TemperatureUnits"=hex:00,00,00,00

I also recommend using MapSource 6.13.7.
Garmin officially provides a MapSource version update download, which will only work if there is previous version of MapSource installed. If no MapSource software is detected, the MapSource update setup will abort with error message saying that it cannot find previous version of MapSource. Follow the following trick to hack the setup file so that it can be used to install MapSource clean and fresh without any prior installation of MapSource:
# Unpack or extract the content of MapSource_6.13.7.exe
using WinRAR.
# From the extracted files, run MAIN.msi.
# Then, run Setup.exe.
Note: The sequence to execute Main.msi and then Setup.exe is important to avoid “Previous MapSource not found!” error.
or
Install first Garmin Training Center For Windows software version 3.4.3
then MapSource 6.13.7
Install at least one map otherwise mapsource will complain and not run,uninstall Garmin Training Center
