I just recieved my M3 on friday, and have it all mocked up in my car. Currently, it survives cranks, even after long periods of ky on engine off, running the pc. Its currently running my pc (1ghz pIII, 2 system fans, 512 ram, onboard sound and video) as well as my usb gps reciever, non powered usb hub, griffin powermate, linksys usb g adapter, luetooth dongle, and touchscreen usb. It has no hiccups so far at all. The only thing that its not connected to is my usb dvd drive, but im not using it yet in my set-up. My only complaint comes not from the M3-atx, but the fact that my mother board doesnot support the power on and off from the atx connector. It has a seperate 9 pin connection with a momentary switch that must be used for power on and off. Ill post any problems i encounter from here on out.
