LoadMyTracks is excellent for folks with Apple Macs.

"LoadMyTracks is a utility to transfer Tracks, Waypoints, and Routes,
and Laps to and from supported GPS devices and make them available in
GPX or KML (Google Earth) format."
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
My GPS is a serial device so you need a serial-USB converter but newer
USB devices should work out of the box.
As has been said it is fiddly but does work and it's fun when you get
back from a long trip to load your track onto Google Earth. I have
tracks from my trip to Malaysia last year.
If anyone is interested download 'path.kmz' (12 kb) from my website
and see the Kuala Selangor-Fraser's Hill drive or the full trip log -
'malaysia_2007.kml' (2 Mb).

A pity Peninsular Malaysia has such poor imagery on GE.
