Ok ive already built my dream PC a few times so instead today Im going to try something a little different. Im going to build my dream car PC.

Have to remember this isnt something I cooked up to play 1080p content on a 60inch screen. This is to bring the versatility and the functionality of a PC into the CAR - it needs to have all the features if not more than say the leading in car entertainment unit and be the same price if not cheaper than For example the Pioneer AVIC HD3 retailing at $3000.
