1) Welcome to the site. Hope your stay is a long and enjoyable one.

2) Read this thread to get started: New to CarPCs? Don't know where to start?

(just a hint - at the top of every subforum, there's usually a few stickies, read them)

3) Then read this thread: Attention Newbies! A FAQ to the FAQs

4) Then this thread: FAQ: What is Spoon Feeding

5) Start to use punctuation the best you can. It really helps the rest of us to understand you better.

6) Again, welcome!

It's the whole reason I wrote that thread. To help alleviate some of the stress from having to type the same things over and over again. Helps to prevent flaming I think.

my eyes almost gone, I read every thing u told me about and iam not gonna lie to u but I didnt understand every thing. There was alot of information i didnt know about, I have 2 questions

1. Is it good to use a Laptop to get what I need ?? (high quality sound, internet )
2. What do i need to buy in generally? (LCD, etc.)

I know my questions looks stupid

thank u

1) no one will know the answer to that but yourself. That would be like asking what would be the best car for you to get? No one knows that but yourself.

Sound quality and internet are not dependant upon the platform that you chose (laptop v. desktop style solution)

2) That first link outlined everything you just asked for:http://www.mp3car.com/vbulletin/show...24&postcount=8

The questions you asked are not necessarially stupid, they just seem to tell me that you really haven't done any reading.

If you think you;ve spent a lot of time reading, when you've really only spent at most 6 and a half hours, you've got a lot more reading to do.

This hobby is not something you just jump into head first and start to swim immediately. It takes a lot of patience and a lot of research.

Your questions are like asking 'What CD player should I go with?" or "What subwoofer should I go with?"

There is not a single diffinitive answer to this. That's what makes this hobby so appealing to many people. It's individualized.

is anyone else noticing a trend here... it seems that most of the posters who are inclined to add "please help me" to their posts actually have no interest in being assisted and just want to be spoon fed.
