Part 1 - System Overview

This pic outlines the fundamental bits of the system hidden away in the boot of my old car.

In the boot (800x600, 1600x1200, No Numbers)

Bits and Pieces :-

1. System Vibration Tester (Subwoofer)
2. Mega Punch Packer (amp)
3. Intelligent Control Center (2 Microcontrollers)
4. Global Positioning System (GPS) - don't need to make up a flash name for that, it's already got one!
5. Vibration-Retarding Mass Storage Unit (hard-drive packed into a toaster box)
6. ATX DC-DC switch-mode heating system. Power comes out of this too.
7. UHS (Uninterruptable Heat Supply) controller.
8. Bracing for the redundant-graphics-card (tape)
9. Backup Battery.
