[QUOTE="saltyjesus, post: 114673, member: 544753"] go for it but remember a few things... one computers are delicate things and also contain magnetic parts that dont like to be around objects with big magnets (aka subwoofers). I think thats a very cool idea, but configuring it wont be as easy as it looks. Where are you going to put your monitor and keyboard? How will having a pc in your car help you in any way? If you did do it I would not reccomend using it to replace your exisisting head unit. If you do make sure you have one incredably awesome sound card. I assume you probably need a 300 watt inverter to power your computer, depending on your computer. plus then you need to power your monitor. I dont'w know man... not a bad idea, but I reccomend just making a router or secondary pc out of those parts [/QUOTE]
