Christ, if its that much trouble I'm glad I went with the TMax w/Autotune.


BTW, How hard is it to get the bugs off the display screen?

Now I want to see your full tower desktop and 21" Trinitron CRT application for bikes...oh and you'll need a power brick for that too....lol

Maybe mount the CRT on the front of the handlebars and the keyboard across the bars...hope you are good at typing with your left hand...of course if you have cruise control it might be easier...

Think of all the emails you could get out on your way to work...assuming you arent jumping around through too many wifi spots...

LOL

Don't you have to hook that up the hand brake line, by law I think this is required, so that you cannot watch movies while riding?

I'm not sure if my computer will read data when the lid is closed. I'll have to investigate it further before I go for my "tuning" rides. It's still freezing cold here, so I've got some time.

EDIT: I just went into the "SYSTEM PREFERENCES" on my computer, and I can't find any mention of keeping the computer active with the lid closed. Anyone know?.... Thanks, JR
