| A PC in Your Car Whether you call it a car computer, car PC, or carputer, the basic concept is the same: convergence. Car PCs combine elements of mobile computing, media centers, miniature hardware, broadband networking, content providers, and software into a centralized solution with the PC at the hub of digital content acquisition and consumption. The gap between personal computing and consumer electronics is closing, and that's encouraging more device interoperability and integration. http://www.extremetech.com/article2/...129TX1K0000532
