DeLorean + Mac mini equals ?

I have no idea what it equals but this guy wants to find out. Many people put Macs in their cars, for a number of reasons (though mostly it boils down to: because I can), the DeLorean Mac mini integration has one unique aspect to it: the screen. Actually, there is no screen, but rather a projector that projects the image from the Mac mini to the underside of the hood. A clever way to make sure that you never operate the computer while driving (that isn't safe for anyone, especially not in a car that can time travel).

Check out the pictures, and the podcast and rejoice in the fact that this post contains only one lame 'Back to the Future' joke.

Thanks, starlightmica.

Personally I put a computer in my car to run GPS in iTunes...but I put it in a few years ago before the days of full screen decks with GPS and satellite traffic info and iPod control :(
Still like my setup though, doesn't get much better than your own itunes playlist without having to carry around an ipod...and the entire map of North America available at your fingertips (literally, and yes, I do use GPS quite a lot for useful purposes!)

I'd bet Reg would rather have the car...or the hot girlfriend.

I'll second the star request for Reg. That was a pretty great comment.

What happens when you hit 88 mph...?

A flash of sparks, then your Mac mini turns into a 128K Macintosh (1984) owned by your mom!

Then you need one point two "jiggawatts" of power.to get it back to normal, but when you do, you'll end up with a super hot girlfriend and a Mac Pro in the garage.
