    15grand where the hell did you come up with that price? A new computer for a car is normally hitting around the $500-$1000 mark. If a car computer cost $15grand how would you get a car retailing in and around the $11g' marks for a KIA for example. Dear Lord man get some facts straight your driving me crazy.

    Why is it that computers are so small? I know than back in the 50's they used to take up entire rooms. Have you guys heard of colossus? Man, that thing wasn't only huge...it had hundreds of flashing lights and reel to reel thingymajigs aswell.

    Ah colossus, now if you owned a pc that size you really could look at it as a worthy extension to your manhood. It would be l337 as hell.
