Would a USB thumb drive(or whatever you call them) work for transferring the information to the quad? Or do you actually have to run a program? Could you make a bootable program run from the thumb drive when it's plugged into the unit? If you could, those are fairly inexpensive($30 at Target for 128mb-maybe less) and easy to use. That would easily solve the problem of location.

So, I had a load of gravel delivered today. Wanted it spread down my driveway 2-3" thick to cover the potholes and help with the mud. Not making a new driveway, just top coating the existing one. showed the driver what I wanted covered and instead of spreading 2-3" thick, dumped about 12" thick and 30' short of the end of the area I wanted covered. Since I don't have any equipment to push that around I now get to move it by shovel and rake.
Was I expecting too much to have the driver spread it down the driveway in a straight line less than a foot deep? Should I make a complaint to Springbrook? Since I don't drive a dumptruck, I don't want to make a stink if it's something I shouldn't expect too much from. But dang, if I knew I was going to have to do all that shoveling, I wouldn't have ordered 12 yds, I would have just gotten a truckload myself and filled in the potholes. If I have to move it, then I will suck it up and do it, but thought I would see if anyone had any thoughts...Thanks for any suggestions.
