I'm starting a POLL to see if people are keen on CarPC, I've finally done it and works well. My system is 98% completed, with a few more touch ups still required, but I was going to do a little write up if there is interests.

I prefer TWINS!

Now anyone up for a friendly game ?

I'd be interested to see some pics and screenshots of your setup at least Kosti.

I would have gone to the kitchen, collected a brown bag, dropped my dacks, pinched off a loaf in said bag, done up dacks, stickytaped bag, placed bag in envelope, and mailed it right to your face for being such a tool.

It's ok, sometimes when we herp, we also derp.

Yes please. Would be good to see what you have done. I was going to do a CarPC ages ago but I never got around to it. I was going to base it on VIA nano/micro form factor CF card(s) for boot with removable drive bay for storage wirless picopsu ended up getting a alpine HDA-5460 instead

(it was only going to be for media)

Stuff goes here

I use an SD card on a laptop I turned into a fileserver at home running linux. Card works great - nice and small, silent, fast, pretty much heatless... It's a good way to go IMO.
