I'd LOVE to do that. However, where I live, well, let's just say people are still about 2-3 decades behind. A couple of our O/O's like the setup, so I may be helping them set something up.
I'm already planning my "upgrade". There are a couple changes that I'll be making.
1 - The laptop will be replaced by a 2ghz CarPC (runs on 12v) and a 20-21" monitor
2 - The stand that I built to sit the laptop on works perfect - except you can't open the bunk. It's not so much an issue for me, but the mechanics don't like it when they have to get under there to do any work. My next "stand" will probably hang from the top bunk and be "foldable" to get it up and out of the way completely.
3 - I may upgrade the monitor in the front to a larger one. The 7" screen does great, but not so much for someone who's got terrible eyesight. I fought the doc to not give me bi-focals, so I have trouble seeing up close. The 10" will solve that, but I have to find a new home for it probably.
