 Xenarc 700TSV touchscreen monitor- also hooked up will be an SNES with controllers rerouted to the centor console. Wireless keyboard- no need for a mouse (touchscreen..). Putting the head unit where the quarter window and top controls are- moving THOSE under the dash whole. The computer- a g4 550 mhz powerbook, is gonna be used for mp3s, NES, Genesis, and PS1 emulation- not to mention DVDs, divx (NARUTO!), etc etc etc. I plan to mount the computer sideways under my seat, so that I can change DVDs on it  So... what do you guys think? Any comments? questions i need to think of? suggestions? etc etc? This post has been edited by shid: May 17, 2004 - 5:25 PM |

Have you considered a Mini ITX computer ? I guess its not worth considering if you already have a G4 you can use, but you can get a mini ITX for about 350-400 USD that runs on the 12 volt directly from the car.
What kinda screen are you going for ? Got a link ? I have been wondering about buying a Lilliput touch lcd for my car but it would be neat to hear from someone how has seen it (or any other screen) in action
