HP has such a computer, it's an "E-PC" 900MHz, 256MB RAM & a 40GB HDD. Onboard everything and has one optical drive. It's so small it actually has an external power supply. The computer runs off 19V @ 3.2Amps(MAX). I know the voltage is wrong, but alternators are supposed to charge at 14-18V's so.....I dunno, I'm no electrician though. The other thing is this computers size it's 25 X 25 X 8cm's, fits perfectly under the seat of most cars. Other good thing is it's price, I picked mine up for $200, with a Windows 2K OS licence. I'm running XP SP2 on it and it runs a treat. Couple this up with a touchscreen somewhere and.... Ive got one of those eVectra things from HP as well and we were toying with the idea of an in car setup. The only thing was sorting out power. Now in the jaycar catalog it says that the inverters they have are fine for laptops (my old mans old HP laptop shares the same external supply as the eVectra) but I don't know if i would trust it. They had some nice sign-wave inverters too that would most likely be a better option but they are a tad more expensive. [Report message to a moderator]
