VIA EX 15000G Mini itx 1.5 GHZ embedded processor, 1GB DDR2 533 memory 170 OBO
http://www.via.com.tw/en/products/ma...erboard_id=450
motherboard retails new for 240
memory retails for 15-20

OPUS 150W Intelligent power supply 60 OBO
-Powers the pc and protects against the cars fluctuating voltages
retails for 120

Would also consider selling the hard drive out of the car with the car pc program still installed on it which costs 250 and is pretty much the best out there. Its called centrafuse and does everything you could ever need in a car http://www.fluxmedia.net/ for more info


Can do a package deal for the whole thing for 320

I must be completely out of touch. Why does someone need a computer in their car and what makes the computer specifically suited for this purpose?

=croninc;603012...unless you plan on like running your own navigation system or something.
But in this case wouldn't you opt for a small laptop or a dedicated GPS better yet?

There are a number of reasons to have a PC in your car...one of the reasons is real time data from OBD2, an accelerometer, GPS, and a multitude of sensors that you can come up with. Also that effectively cures your need for an MP3 player, internet, DVD player, etc. It is also cheaper (usually) than an indash DVD player/GPS that is limited in functionality.

Things that are unique to a car pc: 1) power supply is a DC to DC type with some interesting power options. 2). Low power consumption 3) small footprint 4). vibration resistance ... etc.

figured i would bump this and its not big at all it fits inside a cd chager case and has many other mounting places you could put it...and anything you could do with a pc it can do.....i have about 20,000 songs a few thousand music videos, GPS, internet, phone, everything tied into that...much better than anything out there

here is the program running on the touchscreen in my dash
