Default megasquirt-- tell me everything

hey guys, ive just got a new job so some money coming in. ive seen some threads about megasquirt, and i love it. but i know nothing about how much its is, where from, or how to install it to give me readouts of things on a laptop.
so my question is, tell me everything pro's and cons about it, how hard to install etc...

cheers
scott

this may sound stupid, but can i use something like megasquirt to just give me readouts of rpm, coolant temp, fuel pressure, speed etc etc onto a laptop, with a software platform like megasquirt.
i just dont like the idea of setting up fuel mixtures and all that hard tuning etc.

cheers------DONT FLAME ME FOR THIS

yes MS2 can do that for you. But you'd only be using 10% of its capabilities
