PC's and EFI

Greg,

Good answer.  My initial thinking was absolutely slanted - I've worked with
PC104 before, and quite comfortable with it.  Second, the car I'm building
from scratch - there is absolutely no room to put anything anymore, at
least on paper.  In fact, as I'm starting to weld the chassis together,
I've recently discovered I forgot to leave space for a fuel tank :)  There
will be absolutely "no" under dash space, due to other things mounted
their.  Its difficult to make space, where one can see a notebook, in a
vehicle with a 38" roof height.  But that's my problem, not the lists, or
Bob's :)

>Plenty, obviously...with a hint of reality thrown in to piss off
>the "idea rats".

Naaaaah, we idea rats enjoy this.  This is how new ideas develop.  Maybe
not of a notebook vs. PC104 thread, but anything that provokes thought is
good :)
