Tom’s Hardware Guide has an article on In-Car Infotainment, including a detailed video of my Mac Mini installation into a Dodge Caravan (a MacMiniVan!).
It’s a good video; you get to see how the in-dash Mac Mini install is wired up.

The dog exists, or algebra exists?
“On this blog, we will recognize the idea that sometimes it’s more important what you don’t do than what you do.”
So it would have been more important if I hadn’t posted this than if I had? Damn, I screwed up already. Hey, check out that unicorn in my bathroom…

I agree, you Cretin, you don’t quite understand the idea of the “wild leaps of imagination that fool us out of our boundaries…” oh, hey, wait a minute! You’ve made a living all these years by playing Frisbee. Didn’t anybody ever tell you that can’t be done?

I guess they didn’t convince you. Nice unicorn.

manifatso – the struggle
If the Manifatso can be applied to the graphics arts, then sign me up! I can’t quite grasp how it might apply — so much of graphic design, for a working artist, is about commercialism and therefore what is currently fashionable as well as form following function, i.e., imparting information the ultimate goal of which is to sell something. How does one balance the great economic forces with a life of Fatsoism? Can one pursue and achieve a career creating the new and unique in a world of philistine clients, or must one find a patron or patrons of pure spirit and open checkbook?
manifatso – the struggle
But, Don Roberto, of course much of graphic design, for a working artist, is about commercialism. Likewise, much of being a trail boss in the Old West was about getting the cattle to the market to sell them.
When they make the movie about your cattle drive, Don Roberto, the question won’t be “how many cattle did he sell, and for how much?” It will be, “who will they cast in the role of Don Roberto–John Wayne or Donald Pleasance?”

Perhaps a person is not truly a great writer if he understands the meaning of everything he writes. Perhaps one is not a truly great artist if he carefully constructed each and every one of his artistic ideas in his own mind.
Yes, Fat Man. I’ve oft suspected that you don’t know what you’re doing.
Genius!!
