I'm part way through building a carPC, but need some idea's for an in dash display / head unit.
The components I've got so far are:-
Epia VIA M10000 motherboard
1GB stick Kingston memory
120GB HDD ( laptop style )
M1-ATX psu
Sony DWQ78A13 dvd/cd
All to be housed in a shiny blue Voom PC case.
This is the first pc I'll have ever built, so am I going in the right direction?
I'm after an in dash display, but don't want to lose the FM radio, so to my mind ( and after some digging around on t'interweb ) I either need to buy a display / head unit that has both functions, or try to lay my hands on something like a Psion Wavefinder that plugs into the usb port on the pc.
Does anyone have any opinions on which way to go, or any recommendations for the display?
Thanks for you help!
