Any word on the DIY? How does centrafuse run with this set up? Do you have a psu hooked up? What case are you using?

Not yet but yea I have a M3ATX PSU hooked up the the PC so everytime i crank my engine the pc would start. The Pico-ITX was something I bought from logicsupply dot com. It comes with a 60gb hdd, and free memory, +10 if you want to upgrade to 1gb memory. comes with the case also. CPU and video is embedded into the motherboard. I will try to get a DIY up when I have some time

I did try it but for some reason my pop up screen would only go up half way, and tilt button doesnt work. probably gonna try it 1 last time before i give up.

is this what you bought? http://www.logicsupply.com/products/systemx07p1 is everything included with that? My 8 also has the navigation system on it so it already has the pop up screen would it be easier to incorparate the touch screen into it?
