Taking time to revel in others' work is an important part of CarPC building. You can find amazing ideas that you never knew before. Take this Mazda3 CarPC for example.
This CarPC enthusiast went down a different route than most people when installing a CarPC. The traditional operating system to use is Windows. It's flexible, and has wonderful software support. Instead the installer uses Linux, which if you know what your doing is a wonderful alternative to Windows.

- Via Epia M10000 Mini-ITX
- M1-ATX 90 Watt (Power Supply)

Ever wonder if there was an option for hooking up your XM satellite radio to your Car's PC? Well I did some searching and came across a very well put together tutorial.
