So how about a link to the specs behind the computer and software? I assume Mac Mini, but what apps do you have running and what's the interface shell behind it all? I see you have a Firefox button, so I am curious how you are supporting your wireless connectivity? I would also love to know what the display details are and how that's connected... TIA

 

Nice job man, I am highly impressed. How long do these projects take you? How'd you make a custom console for window controls and everything?

 

i know this hasnt been update in a while, but you did a fantastic job, im not into electronics like that but it looks really nice and well done

 

drew, if you ever come back (for some reason ur sn looks familiar so maybe ur still around) a full write-up on all this would be awesome.

 

I found his post on the other site. It contains a couple nice write-ups.

Hey guys. Sorry I haven't updated this. I haven't really touched my car this past year. I've drove it 25 miles this year. Been busy with school and other toys.

It's running windows xp with a skin that I made for roadrunner. It's just running wifi.

Thanks

Write up on what part?

You crazy stocker lol just messing man

I'm on all my forums with this name caraudio, diyma, fiberglassforums, mp3car, ls1tech, s10forum, blazer forum. Just to name a few

 

Great job so far.. For your computer, I'd recommend going with a solid state drive since a its in a car. Speed bumps and the like will really beat your hdd to death.

 

I've never had a problem with my hard drive, even with sub zero weather. Now that this is only my toy and never sees bad weather I'm less worried. That can be debated about as much as mounting them horizontal or vertical. If anything were to happen I think I would mess with the idea of a mac mini.

 

I would go with a Mac Mini...

 

I drive around with my laptop in my van powered on sitting on the floor or behind the seat on edge, done it for years, no issues yet...
