<VV> Corvair sighting - MS Streets & Trips site

I tracked down the lady who arranged for that artwork to be on the page that
Tom forwarded. It's a stock photo--not taken specifically for this
application--and she did not realize what type of car was featured.

According to the lady, the Streets and Trips team chose the photo "because
we thought it visually articulated the way the product allows you the
freedom to truly enjoy your travels."

Interesting factoid: She has a soft spot for Corvairs; her grandfather used
to own one. So, she was pleased to learn that the photo was of a Corvair.

I just registered a copy of Microsoft Streets & Trips, and discovered the
photo Microsoft uses on their site shows a Spyder dash.
