I have one of these, and it is a spare.

I want to put it in my car for dvd/divx and mp3 (plus games and wireless internet)

My only stumbling block has been the screen. What is big enough to actually be able to use windows on screen wise?

Any of you have a computer setup in car, and if so do you have any pics?

Sugeestions would be great I have everythign needed just looking for some input on screen size, and location. I would hate to buy a $299 10 incher and find out it doesnt have the rez I need

Pic please!

 

i personally dont have a comp in my car but for your eyes sake i would suggest something at least about 12-13" that will support a res of 1024x768. now for a place to put it... well thats where it starts getting harder. Possible to design a custom mount for the passenger side to hold the LCD. Of the computers that ive seen mounted in the car they usually mount it somewhere on the passenger side of the vehicle. Sometimes people will possibly dash mount the monitors but without a special mount the windshield in our f-body's inhibits much head room along the dash for a monitor. hope that helps a little.

 

What do you think about a 14 incher custom mounted to the head liner to flip down from there about where the reaer veiw mirror is?

 

Is this for a thirdgen, if it is I don't know where you plan on putting a 14" screen in a thirdgen.. Even 10" is kinda pushing it.. I have an 8.4" Sharp LCD panel and it runs 640x480 and I can see everything perfectly fine.. its only for the car, you don't really need 1024x768

 

naw its for a rig with a bit more room, but aplis just the same, I think your right with the 10" and 640x480 thats just about tv rez anyhow.

as long as i can see all the windows functions ill behappy
