Default Touch screen computer

Looking for a system that will be able to run many things, navigation, dvd, audio, ps2, widescreen, email, high resolution, etc would like as much of this as possible but not necessity. Permanently mounted display in console not flip up and money is no issue. Any suggestions?

Jesse, give it a few months more and there will be motorized touchscreens available....

I have most of what I would need to put together a very nice "carputer" but then you have so many things to deal with (startup / shutdown / power / humidity / etc...). It's just not worth it yet to me.

I saw the motorized touchscreens.. they are out for the big brands already, but not in raw form.

Yeah thats my big problem with the mp3 carputer, Im not sure it could survive my vehicle, much less my demands.

i was thinking about doing one in my car, but so many complications, with having it automatically start when the car starts, and hear in florida, cooling would be a major issue, imagine how hot it gets in the car when its not turned on and what that would do to a PC
