How can we make the Mac go into hibernation mode when the car is switched off? I assume some sort of battery isolator would be used to seperate the car battery from the hibernation battery. Since the mac waking from sleep mode is instant, this would be the perfect solution for a car PC.
From what I understand, the mac also users very little power in sleep mode. My powerbook, for instance, uses about 1% of its battery life in 12 hours when sleeping.
If we could work out a system to do this, I will be willing to start coding a front end in Cocoa. My extensive experience with VB and C++ should make learning Cocoa a breeze.
cheers.
