[SATLUG] mini-itx mobo in my truck

[Alex Bartonek]

been there.. I saw a auction on ebay a year ago or so
but lost the details.  I figured it would be tough to
implement the laptop LCD -> SVGA on a mini-itx mobo. 
I'll keep looking.  My other option is the usual LCD's
that you buy for cars that have S-Vid in but I'd need
one that does 1024x768, but 7" displays are too small.
