Hi All, I'm new to this forum. Basically I want to set up a PC to boot-up to a single program: Specifically SeaClear II chartplotter. It will also need to run MapCall II (a chart organiser for SeaClear). It also needs to support a touchscreen display. The aim is to get an on-board (fairly low-spec) computer to act as a chartplotter. So its basically going to be a single-function dedicted PC. I need to get it to boot up into SeaClear on switch-on, should get there very quickly and run it adequately (I don't think performance when running is much of an issue). Is Linux/Wine going to be the right choice here? Am I going to have any issues with trying to get the touchscreen to work? Windows is just annoying, comes with too much bloat and not sure I can by-pass the log-in screen so that it auto-boots into a specific app. It does the job - just. It also would be nice to support: - Basic web browsing (via WiFi) - Playing DVDs. Anything else: I've got a lap-top. Thoughts? Thanks, F
