Hi all,
Just wanted to start documenting the Machputer Project and get some opinions and/or comments, good or bad, I don't mind as long as it's constructive. Plus I've noticed that there are very few Mustang installs in here (I bet mostly because it's a pain in the a$$ to get around the Mach460 audio system...) so hopefully this will encourage some other Mustang owners to install a Carputer.
I'm still in "off-car" testing but I have most of the components which I hope to start installing soon (Hopefully before the DC area meet, in the end of this month
).
Here is the hardware list.
--Toshiba Satellite 1800-S207 Laptop
--Lilliput 7" Touchscreen
--Creative SoundBlaster Live! USB
--Holux Mouse GPS Receiver
--Wireless Trackball mouse
--Logitech Playstation Keyboard
--External Sirius tuner (already had it in the car, just recycling....gotta love that Sirius!!!!)
--750W Power inverter
For software:
--WinXP Pro SP2
--Still not sure what frontend, between Media Engine, Centrafuse, and Road Runner
--iGuidance
I'll post updates here as often as possible, these next couple of weeks I'll be doing a lot of work on this.
l8rz!!!
