New Carputer option? (MSI WindBOX)
I just found this, it would be perfect for a carputer.

Looks similar to the Winmate which is supposed to have an Atom version soon. They also have quite a few 3.5" boards.

Those are slick! I like the first one - based on the Atom.

I'd expect to see a lot more of these devices in the very near future.

i wonder why it's limited to 1gb ram. I have the atom in my car and it's 2gb max.
