Default Ram Monut - Diesel Boss

I was relucant but bought a internet verson of the Ram Mount from Diesel Boss, paid about $200. This version slides between the seat bottom bracket and the floor/carpeting, so install and removal is a bit eaiser. As it turns out the stand is quite stable and I'm rreal happy with the whole setup, very sturdy and stable! It swivels around nicely but does not swind into the rear sleeper area, although it is viewable while sitting and or sleeping.

@Malaki86

Thanks man, I've been looking for a compact keyboard/touchpad to use with my new mobile desktop PC --I'm putting together.

That touch screen looks nice too, what all software you running that is compatable with it....or is there special interface software which would allow you to activate normal desktop icons? shortcuts? screen buttons? etc????

The touchscreen driver that comes with it basically acts exactly like a mouse. To click something, you just touch whatever you want selected on the screen. Right-clicking is completely different with the touchscreen, and I'm glad I never have to do it.

I run CoPilot Truck, which is designed for a touchscreen interface. The buttons are big and easy to hit and it also has an on-screen keyboard for entering stuff without using the keyboard.

I can use the touchscreen to control everything on the computer exactly like the mouse does, however. Nothing special to do to make it work. Just plug it in, install the driver and you're done.

In additon to terrrylamar I would like to know:

Does anyone use the RAM MOUNT extension you can use with it? How far does the RAM MOUNT extend back into the sleeper? Can you use the RAM MOUNTfrom the bunk?
