    Default Laptop for car

    I had a 10.1" laptop in the boot, an IBM machine purely for all the car software, EPC, OpCom and TIS ect. now, that laptop has died and looking for another to replace it, have found this one, not a top of the range one but a reasonable make and its only for the car anyway, already found all the windows XP drivers so would change to that immediately, what are peoples opinion please....

    just type UMPC into ebay or google. Its a type of PC rather than a make (ultra mobile PC). There are various types, so research would be required.
