How the heck do you watch a laptop screen while driving?
I have no doubt the screen real afforded by a laptop would be great, but I'd
be scared to death of plowing into the guy in front of me if I had that
sitting on the passenger's seat (where else can you put it to be useful?).
OTOH, a pda and appropriate mount (windshield or vent louver) can be glanced
at frequently without that same fear. I can get all the detail I *need* on
the screen.
