Some guy hooked up a 7" LCD to his mini. TOO COOL!

That's pretty cool. Some shock absorbers and we got ourself a full fledge car computer.

Here's a Land Rover install.

There's also a short discussion on whether or not shock absorption is needed. I say you might as well...they say no. And then I wonder whether or not mounting it vertically would help.

And here's an SE install.

Are there more?

Even better: it's a touch screen LCD, so he can use it without a mouse and keyboard (using a virtual keyboard).

Next step: put it in a car

You guys most not've been paying attention or you would've seen that, indeed, someone else has a *better* system already rolling in their Land Rover...

Mac mini and 7" screen (Lilliput; 16x9, touch, 1024x768 [IIRC]), in a freakin' Land Rover!

Granted, it's sitting in the glovebox and powered with an inverter but still.
