I hate to say this, but:
For what its worth, APRSdos can be built to boot and
run with local maps from a floppy disk.  Maps are not 
good for "dispatch" but they are ideal for HAM radio
communications and knowing where all your assets
are in its communications network...

And the PC does not even have to have a working
hard drive.  It can run from the Floppy drive.  Once them
maps are loaded, the drive is never accesssed again.
