As much as I hate Windows, it is actually much better suited for a car (right now at least). I have a carputer, and I'm a regular visitor to the mp3car.com forums.
GPS navigation for Linux is basically nonexistent. Also, there are several very good frontends that are being developed for Windows (Frodoplayer, Centrafuse, Roadrunner, etc.) Check out the http://mp3car.com/ forums if you're curious.
I would love to run Linux in my car, but until I have a decent frontend and GPS navigation, I'm going to stick with Windows.
