I have comtemplated it before but figured it was too much hassle. 1. How would the issues of power be worked out? Cause when you switch the car off you'd want the computer to power down also otherwise you'd end up with a flat battery. 2 When you started it back up, wouldn't it take to long to boot up to be functional? 3 Also, with a regular Cd player, it remembers where your CD was up to, so when you switch it back on it continues where it left off. How would you do this with a PC? If you left it on, wouldn't it cause your battery to go flat? youll find that shutting a computer straight off is not problem at all, the only problem with doing so is if you have an application running which is saving/using/doing something. if your at the desktop with nothing actually happenening, you can safely switch your PC off with no ill effects. Eldar.O. edit: PC's have a mode called hibernate, basically it saves all you settings and shit, so when you switch your pc back on, its exactly how you left it. and as for boot up, you realise a fresh windows xp installation boots up in almost 3 seconds, this is from my experience using a Pentium 3 728 mhz machine with 256 MB of RAM...
