October 12th sounds good to me. I'm going to another carputer event in Nashville the following week. It's actually another event that just happens to have a carputer presentation.

Hopefully I can have everything done by that time. The computer is no problem, but my touchscreen has been poorly fitted in the dash for a couple years so it's time to do some real fabrication. I may not have the finishing touches done on the fabrication, but I'm sure we all know how these projects can be ongoing.
Where is a good place to meet in B'ham? Somewhere around the Homewood area is usually best for me.
