Very nice, a workshop in the apartment complex? Never heard of that around here
This is what I have been looking at but I am still trying to get a better deal from the vendor or find another much cheaper monitor option.
VSL150-HW 15in widescreen LED metal enclosure touchscreen open frame monitor, VGA monitor screen touch, touch screen display planar elo microtouch

There are other cheaper options but their quality is lacking too (i.e. doesn't support enough touch points, lower resolution, no HDMI, etc.). So its a tough battle deciding which way to go lol.

Well I'm looking to get out of the apartment scene so I looked at a house rental instead. However in Annapolis there was an apartment complex that offered 1 or 2 car garages for an additional rent.

I must have completely looked over this post. Just saw it today.... It would be nice if the Pi had more processing power and unfortunately they were able to get cost down on this by not offering a touchscreen. and for convenience in a car a touchscreen is a must. Otherwise you will have to worry about a toting a mouse and keyboard. Some people may do that anyway but I get the feeling most of us wouldn't want to use a mouse/keyboard to change the radio station or temp every time.
