More Car PC Players

October 23rd, 2008

Sumicom is the newest dealer on the corner, slangin the car-PC rock. Nothing terribly mind-blowing about the specs and it uses the same case Xenarc has been using for more than a year now. Consider this just an FYI.

CappuccinoPC is now offering what I can only call OHMYGODTHATSDOPE. Motorized touch screens are so Pimp My Ride yet so simply useful. They don’t stop at a simple touch screen, they give you an Emeril BAM! with a 1600X1200 screen resolution and support for multiple inputs. Sadly its $449… Wait a second, that’s pretty damn cheap… OK, well, this might be a first but I cant find anything but nice things to say about it. You wanna fight about it?

NASCAR Computer Goes Fast, Turns Left

October 23rd, 2008


We here at Carhacks love the convergence of cars and computers. It’s sort of what we, you know, DO. Although this isn’t strictly a car computer, it’s a close cousin, the co-branded Seagate NASCAR PC.

I’ve heard of Ferrari branded Acer PCs, which left me wondering what the point was but a NASCAR PC? I guess the logic is that NASCAR fans are a rabid lot and tend to spend their paychecks and social security benefits on every variation of #3’s officially licensed beer koozy so by extension, they would go out and buy a NASCAR computer. What leaves me a little puzzled is that up until now I didn’t think NASCAR fans could read let alone use a computer. Life never ceases to amaze me.
