Yeah, but how much do they cost? :-)
At least they finally got a LAN port in these things.
That's a cool idea, but I'd rather see a low-profile case that you can use to
mount standard PC components in a vehicle. It wouldn't be that difficult
to figure out, we just need someone with the fabrication and design
resources to get around to doing it. Really, in a vehicle you don't need
ultimate portability. If you can mount a CD changer in the trunk or back
seat, you should have enough room to make a PC case.
That way, once you had the mounting system, you could assemble the
components yourself. Much cheaper than going with a laptop or one of
these "pocketbook" computers. Then you could keep the portable for
carrying around in your backpack :-).
Hmmm... I seem to remember working with a low-profile Compaq
computer years ago. It had a couple of expansion slots, with all of
the basic stuff on the motherboard. Wouldn't be too difficult to adapt
the basic design. Anyone?
