Carputer

I started the carputer back in 2002 after hearing about VIA's new mini-ITX form factor integrated motherboards. Suddenly it seems possible to fit a computer in my car, so I set about the task of working out how to make the hardware run in a mobile environment.

A personal touch
As my carputer becomes more integrated into the car, I decided it's about time I spend a little time personalising my interface a bit more.

After finding a great little utility called Resource Hacker I've now altered my Windows bootup. As you can see from the pictures below, it's been changed from the default to a carputer style one I put together. Lovely :)

I feel my carputer is now at the stage where I'm quite happy with it, so I was considering doing a video tour of my current setup. Explaining how it all works and fits together.
