_ Car dashboards are about to undergo a major makeover. What was once the domain of -an- old-fashioned radio and later -a- new-fangled CD-ROM player is about to become -the- home to _ fairly powerful computers. Recently, the car has transformed into a cross border between a car, a living room, and a cockpit for navigating all -thr- byways of _ Information Highways. Our vehicles are a big part of our lives. A car isn't only a means of _ transportation, but it's an expression of who we are, our personality. _ Products like -an- in-car PC will really take that to the next level. Beyond being an expression of who we are, _ cars are increasingly where we are. As this in-car computing takes hold, look for _ communications, _ audio, _ location, and _ diagnostic systems all to converge on the dashboard. This convergence could have a profound impact on _ cars, their makers, and their drivers. It has the potential to really change the way we interact with our vehicles.
