You just got tossed out of the house (games) because you play too many games either off or on-line. What do you do? Why, play in your car!



Seagate, a storage company based in Scotts Valley, California, has tricked out a 2006 Scion xb with three personal computers with touchscreens that offer a combined 140 gigabytes of data storage.  The computers are in the dash and in the back of the headrests. Back seat passengers can play video games head to head or challenge other players they can't see via the internet. 

Here's a cool feature. The occupant of the front passenger seat can call up a music library by simply drawing an "M" with his or her finger on the dashboard touchscreen or call up the navigation system by drawing an "N."

For those who want to play off-line (all three of you), there is an Xbox 360 that offers video games.

More images can be found at the link. Our take? When used properly, there is a great deal of fun and convenience with the new electronic gadgets.
