I use Linux very much but I didn't like the Navigation support for it so I had to step my feet into winblows xp. But before you shrug your shoulders and say what crap is that my install boots in 10 seconds from post. So basicly I am running a stripped down version of xp. Works very well. I will be sending more pictures soon also.

Lookin' good so far. I am curious to see how road bumps might affect the hard drives. Keep up the good work.
See hawgman .. you too could have sold the information too and made a ton of $$.. but you just gave it all a way... in a forum.. shame

Hey man I am very interested in puttig something similar in my 02 GT. Did you write the touchscreen software? or is there somewhere I can find that program. I figure I could build the PC easily enough. What kind of power supply did you use for the PC? Do you have to make sure you turn off the comp before you turn off the car, etc etc. Just misc questions I have

I was going to say something about his "might sell the diagrams" comment. But I think you just handled that for me

Some people like what I did but wouldn't have any idea on how to do it. That comment wasn't intended for those that do, so please ignore it then.

Who it was intended for was not the point. The point was we're all here ( or at least came here in the beginning ) to share ideas, knowledge, lies, stories, etc. Your comment about selling someone a drawing of how you put your multimedia center in your car is a bit "material" in my opinion.

First. That is sweet as Hell

Second. I'd have a hard time making use out of that thing. To me just seems like an expensive mp3 player but whatever floats your boat.
