Okay, details:
566 MHz Celeron
128 MB RAM
2 hard drives totaling 70GB storage
CD-RW/DVD drive
The motherboard is installed under the passenger seat. The hard drives are attached to a "shelf" I made from the top of a $.98 plastic tub. The "shelf" is suspended above the motherboard, hung quite securely. The DVD drive will face out the front, through a fake drawer front which also will have the power button for the computer. The computer's power supply will be tucked under the seat as well. It will use a backup battery, stashed in the back, so that when the car shuts off, the computer does not crash. Instead, it will stay on for 1 minute, then shut down.
This computer will be capable of playing DVDs, writing CDs, storing and playing over 10,000 MP3s, as well as computer games (not new ones), ordinary word processing and networking.
The video from the computer will be displayed on existing screens in the car, as well as a 7" screen in the glove compartment. Input to the computer will be achieved with a touchpad and keyboard. Eventually, a cordless keyboard will replace the one I'm using now and I will add a cordless mouse with the touchpad.
I'll have pics in a few days.
