What's a CarPC? Simply put, it's a PC that goes into your car. This can be easily and clumsily done with a laptop and a stereo that has a line-in adapter, but for a more permanent and elegant solution, you need to do some tweaking.

I am really suprised that more laptop makers aren't building docking stations specifically for in-vehicle use. Maybe it is still too much of a niche market.

That is cool, but so out of my league. Chalk that up to another project I'll do if I win the lottery.

People have been doing this for years using the MacMini. Nothing really new.
