Why Simrad over Furuno or the others?

I did the side by side comparison of features on all units (touch screen, pre-loaded charts, chirp and side scan capability and size allowance) and then divided by costs. Simrad.
Seriously, it's a unit that has a pretty solid buzz for all the features it packs into a compact size. It also has NEMA and radar upgrades ready to go if needed. Pages load up quickly and it's pretty easy to use.
Been a Garmin guy from jump street, but this one caught my eye and fit the space nicely. Check it out at West Marine and run it through some pages.
