ErnstKompressor writes "I came across a story detailing an awesome car mod out of the Czech Republic. The author undertook what must be the most impressive exercise in computer integration I have ever seen, installing an extensive Mac system with custom Cocoa software controlling nearly every aspect of a 1993 Tatra 613.

    Moderators : when you see this poster (1337) God, do not Mod him up! If you've got mod points, go into his history and mod down his other posts which are +5. He's a power troll having fun with karma whoring.
