Thanks smoke but 1,699 is a bit too much...

mini tx looks good but id rather not buy anything if possible, i'd rather use something i already own, ya know?

the mini itx systems are tiny what are you talking about? the motherboard is 17cm by 17cm.....alot cheaper then a laptop.

Thanks for all the advice, i like that sound blaster x platinum, but i want to stick with using my laptop if possible, i don't have room at all for a desktop pc, i might be able to build my own super slim one and do that but i'd rather use the 2.8 ghz dell that is laying around the house. I don't want to use a hu at all, i want it all off the computer. So all you see is a lcd screen in the dash.

Confusing 'eh? :)

just go with a desktop pc with something like a mini-itx motherboard... 17x17cm motherboard ~1ghz, more than enough to watch videos, listen to music, and do some surfing and gps stuff.

I don't think a tablet would have the power to run anything like full videos or have upgradeable components. I would design for the possible future jmo.

well there is this tablet/labtop thing... but i dunno how it would work... b/c i believe that it has to be connected to the keyboard part... but yea... im not much into tablets i havent explored the world of them.. i mainly stick with desktop pc's... hell i built my own...

well for one i don't think you could put a high end sound card in a tablet pc, but i may be wrong

Hey you guys... one of you said of getting a touch lcd screen... well why dont you run all of this off a tablet and mount the table in the dash? i would think that would be so much easyer... but dont ask me idk... all i know is i know more about computers than car audio... but intersted in them both..
