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.

Fantasic, I've now got the core of the system, the motherboard! Tonight I'll connect the display up to the motherboard and take some pictures.
I've had no luck finding a 50W PSU, so I *may* have to go with a 120W PSU I've found. This would mean I'll need to buy a new 150W inverter, which is an added expensive. Maybe I'll have to try and sell my inverter...
Now I need to get the other parts right, such as the memory/hard drive and the keyboard/mouse combo. But at least I can now start to gets things moving!
