Industrialflowerfactory.com http://www.industrialflowerfactory.c...ail.php?o=1129 This looks like a killer deal for a car PC system. What do you guys think?

TIA,

you can build it for much cheaper than the $570 they want

I was going to say there's nothing wrong with a little profit on their side, but they're assembling that machine from a total of ~five peices. Also, you'll probably want to replace that power supply with an Opus, in which case, you might as well build it yourself.

Also, also, it says the following in their site:
"Computers don't have to be loud and inefficient. They can be whisper quiet and save energy."

That comment alone would prevent me from ever purchasing anything from them.

OK thanks Guys for the replies! I guess I gotta do some more researching on sourcing cheap parts.

Thanks

Silver case color $$?

Energy efficient 1ghz VIA C3 (Nehemiah) Processor $150 (im sure they can get in bulk)

512mb PC-2100 DDR266 Memory ($60-80

40gb 5400 rpm 2.5" Hard Drive ($100)

Slim DVD-ROM/CD-RW Combo ($50+)

so like $370 minus the case and what is the case worth? who knows.
