FS: Car Computer $220 Shipped

Hey there everyone, I am selling the

1 Ghz Via EPIA-M Mini-ITX Motherboard,
DVD/CD Rom,
512MB memory
30GB Hardrive
Creative 24-Bit Live 5.1 External Sound card.
IDE to PATA adaptor and
Opus 150 Watt Power DC-DC power supply.

Most of those that know me personally, know that I am a computer technician by trade, I built this bad boy as my Media and Driver assistance Evo Centerpiece.

I used it for GPS, (With Co-Pilot Live software), DVD Movie, MPEG videos, MP3 80GB Media Player, M.A.M.E. (Multiple Arcade Machine) for gaming, Digimoto for ECU monitoring and simulated Dyno/Quarter Mile times and ECU Flash for Tuning. I also connected it to my phone via Blue Tooth. The possibilities are endliess. I still plan to connect a rear camera to it and record my Track Runs directly to the hard drive.

The only reason I'm selling this is because I'm planning to build a more powerful system that's going to run me about 1,000 Dollars so the cash has to come from somewhere.

The only things that are left for you to purchase are the Monitor and USB GPS Receiver, and I guess a mini-keyboard unless you go with the touchscreen monitor.

I can easily tell you I spent over 1,200 dollars for all these items about 1 1/2 years ago so this is a good deal for someone willing to take this project at a much lower cost.

Here is the link to the motherboard in case you wanted to know more about the specs.

Also if you just wish to have a mini-itx machine this could be used as that machine it's just that because of it's small size I found it ideal for my CAR PC Project.

*****
Please note, that installing such a device in your Evo requires some serious knowledge about computers, and a little bit of electronics. I will help as much as I can but I don't expect a daily call on how to install everything step by step. I have a few links to forums where you can pretty much read it yourself step by step and figure it all out.

Here are a few pictures of the computer as I was starting the project myself.

Note the PC Case with CD-ROM, the Powersupply in the back, the Monitor which I'm not including, the interface and the mini-keyboard in one of the pics on the right hand side. P.S. The music selection was for my GF at the time so please spare me the commentary on the poor selection of music

Here's one more of the Windows OS. Note that I am now using the current version of Centrafuse which can be found here.
