Hey! Tatra Man! Have You Seen This Beauty?

It's a customized Tatra with an on-board Mac computer! Not a bad looking car, IMHO. The front end sort of looks like a BMW.

I just looked at this and HOLY CRAP! One part I found especially interesting though was "Tatra has it's own Ethernet network, with small 8 port switch under the rear seats and total of 4 outlets in the armrest and the middle console."

Are Czech auto manufacturers really that far ahead of us that they had LANs in cars in 1993????

Nah, just one crazy Czech who decided to turn his car into a hi-tech automobile. (I've heard that the electronics are worth more than the car.)

Yeah but the way he said it, it seems like they had wired ethernet into it from the factory. I guess I just misinterpreted his description. Still pretty impressive though.
