looking for PC to use in a car

[Dan]

I'm looking for a small PC or Windows based SBC that I can use in my car to
play mp3s and do Excel spreadsheets. Can someone point me to a forum or
website? I'm using google but too many hits.

Why am I picturing Clippy popping up? "It looks like you're trying to
amortize a loan and dodge a semi at the same time! Which would you
like help with: 1) Interest rates 2) Braking distance calcuations
3) Life insurance payout estimation"

Can someone point me to a forum or website?

If you're driving - you shouldn't be using a PC ! Unless you're an utterly
brainless loony maniac that is.

I don't see where he said he would use it while driving.

ROTF - I work out of my truck and keep track of customers and billing on
Excel - when I'm parked, that is.

I'm thinking I'll probably just get an mp3 player that will plug into the
aux of my truck stereo and get a handheld PC that does Excel and can
interface to my home PC. And no, I won't be doing it while I drive!

Cuz with eating, talking on the cell phone, flipping off jerks, etc.
you don't have enough distractions?


Don't use google.com/search when you want to buy something:

I've been down this road...pun intended.
With all the available mp3 cd players and flash players available today,
using a computer just isn't worth the trouble.

For spreadsheets, your problem is gonna be daylight readability.
Doesn't matter what's under the hood if you can't read the screen.
Look into laptops for police cars...but take two wallets with you.

If you plan to do all this while on the move, you'll also need
wrongful death insurance for the prople you kill with your car.
