Get the wife to hold it! With any luck she can comprehend voice commands as well!

Hi Paul as you don't have a passenger air bag you could make up a bracket/pod to hold the laptop in the flat part of the dash above the passenger grab handle

Ive knocked one up recently albeit roughly and plan to use it Greenlaning this Saturday.
I'll take a pic or two tomorrow just to give you an idea.

How hard can it be

I believe Dinky does this, though forgot to look at his install when out laning last year, doh!

how big is the lappy, screen size that is, a small netbook type could maybe with a custom
bracket even sit on top of middle of dash, subject to old bill not considering you are losing
forward vision?
