Default Computer for Boat?

Dear Folks,

I am considering installing a computer on my boat. I would be interested

in
your thoughts about the issues involved with electronic systems in the

salt
water environment. Specifically marinized components, 12 volt power
supplies, and RF interferences. Also any ideas concerning issues that I

have
not thought of yet.

Much appreciated.

Light falling on the screen is the main problem, but if you are good at the
cut and paste stuff, a large black card enclosure can solve both the screen
and the splash problem. Get your black card at an art shop and make a hood
which embraces the whole thing.

Cheap to replace once it begins to look tired! Dont forget the hook 'n loop
fastening to hold the laptop down in a seaway!

Dennis.
