No heating problems.. If so I'll liquid cool it and run the radiator under the car somewhere.. :-) there is a resolution to every problem. not to mention, this will not be in a mini case, I have a 5U rack-mount server case that it's in. I figured I could mount it safer being a rack case.
As for the security, Just brain-stormed one day and thought 'it would be cool if i could stream video, and raw data from the GPS antenna. as long as the car is powered on it automatically connects to cingular's cellular gprs broadband, then it sync's a dyndns hostname upon connection, and then I connect via Dameware, or VPN. Once I connect to it I can basically do anything that the computer can do. :-D
Once it's done I will have full documentation on everything. (if I can get the time to document it. Right now I'm customizing the read window defroster switch. It was too hard to relocate somewhere, so, I unsoldered the button and the led from the switch assem, and now I will use a standard momentary button and flashy l.e.d. for the button and mount the rest of the switch behind the screen in the dash. Then I still have the timer, and I made no modifications to the vehicles wiring.
I'm having problems figuring out weather i want to block off just the left center vent, or both center vents for a few l.e.d.'s, buttons, switches, and my AEM Uego that I'm ordering (w/3" o2 housing w/extra o2 bung welded in). Help me out let me know what might look better. (I'm running some cat-5 from the computer up to the heater vent block off plate for power, reset, power l.e.d., and HDD l.e.d. Even though the power supply controls the power, this will run a microsuck operating system, so, I need a reset button! I wanted Linux, but no software for GPS, XM Radio, etc..
