Laptop Controlled System??

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.

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? :)

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

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?
