I'd do it to my 15" Macbook but I frequently run out of hard drive space working on photos/video and graphics. Plus I don't like the idea of my laptop sliding around on my seat while I'm driving, LOL. My other laptop is a 17" Macbook Pro and it's just too darn big to do that and I let my wife use it for the most part.

A lot of the cutting edge hack/tuning stuff taking place in the automotive world incorporates the Mac OS and iOS. I personally think they need to step up their game after seeing what's available for other automotive platforms.

^^You'd get a hernia just hauling this thing out. Weighs somewhere around 60 lb. There's a small heater core bolted to the back too.

I use Parallels Desktop for Mac and run XP, Win7/8/10 in a window or full screen while running OSX.
