Vespa Puter

I ran across this today and thought it looked interesting. Vespas are cool. Computers are cool. How could you go wrong?

Friend at school had a Vespa - his dad owned a moped shop, so he was riding with illegally large engines at 16. They're cool if you're not old enough to get anything but a basic bike permit, but other than that they're a bit wimpish...
Fine if you live in a sunny mediterranean town with tight narrow streets and a nice chick grasping on to you for dear life though...
Much prefer a Yamaha R1 or something along those lines....

Hmm. I'm not sure what to think of that. I admit that I think vespas are "neat" and have always wanted a motorcycle. I like my carputer but one of my favorite things about it is that it's INSIDE my car. I wonder if the PC is plugged into ODBII?
