Ok Guys
I thought i'd set this up as a mini blog for the car puter install in my car. I know the idea has been talked about loads, and i believe Ollie is the only one here to fully complete one, but thanks to him putting the idea in my head, im going to attempt one also
The bits i have are shown below
1) Ione Mini Wireless keyboard with built in mouse
2) 512MB Ram
3) 90W Intelligent PSU
4) 7" Touchscreen
5) 2 Different touchscreen mounting brackets
6) 2.5" HDD to 3.5" HDD + power adapter
7) 80GB 7200RPM HDD
8) Slot type Dual Layer DVD Writer with added Slot type to IDE converter.
9) Mini Motherboard
10) Two 6CM Fans
11) USB Hub
12) 2 Short IDE Cables
13) Various screws & cable ties
14) 2X3 Foot of fibreboard
Not on display) USB GPS Receiver
Not on display) Compact Flash Card Reader
Now, i've been drawing up a design of how i want it too look, so the plan this weekend will be to make the box up with the main components inside it. I've designed a two shelf style system, in a similar shape to a PS2, with a fan on either side blowing in and extracting air. Short cables used where possible to increase air flow, reduce mess and save space.
I can give further details on parts if requested. Price list to follow when completed!
Deadline - JAE.
