sweet dude, thanks. It can add to my oldsmobile theme wallpapers i have on my laptop.

hehehe... So we're all installing PC's in our vehicles? Its really quite useful on the road to have everything on a computer.

If you guys are planning to actually mount the machine in the car, make sure you have a pc-card lan or something you can update your machine with, since it would be a pain to rip it out every time you need to install something!

If you dont mind me asking, what type of computers are you guys planning to use?

Myself, I have a Texas Instruments P133, 6gb hard disk, and one hell of a TFT screen... Main reason I decided to buy this notebook - the screen kicks ass!

What type of pointing device are you guys going to use? I found a little mini PS/2 keyboard at a junk shop that I am using, its 12" x 4.5", and its so cool... And I found this hand-held track ball unit that I use as a mouse. You operate the ball with your thumb, and the button is like a trigger on a gun, its pretty cool aswell..

Your imagination is the limit...

I found a p3 laptop at best buy that is designed really cool. The entier screen can twist around and lock down the the back of the screen is locked up against the keyboard. I'm going to be getting that soon, and seing as how i use wireless in my house, all i have to do is pull up by the garage and i can get a signal, so it will be easy to update

Not sure if I will actually be mounting mine, but here are the specs:

It's a Book PC Case, EVERYTHING is integrated, which includes the sound card, 56k Modem, 10/100 Ethernet, 1MB Video with built-in Composite and S-Video Out, Serial Port (Very Important), Printer Port (Of Course), 2 USB, Mouse Port, Keyboard Port, NO EXPANSION slots. 52X CD-ROM Drive, Floppy Drive, 8GB Hard Drive. 466MHz Intel Celeron, 128MB PC133 SDRAM (2-64MB Sticks), eh....that's about all I can think of, it is also very small.

Brando, thats a really cool machine...

I was going to ask you about serial port on a P3 laptop... But you answered my question. Here at work, we need serial to run old programs on our laptops, and have been finding that NO BODY BUILDS SERIAL INTO LAPTOPS ANYMORE!!!

Quite annoying to say the least, but its good that yours has it! those USB ---> serial converters are shit, we've tried them out many times. That would be an awesome little box to hide away in your trunk, and run all the cables to the front for less clutter. Thats the way I built the computer into my Caddy, was a full tower in the trunk and ran everything up to the front. Worked very nice!
