I built an MP3 player for the car using one of the Epia boards.  I'm powering in the 
car
with an Opus Solutions 12 VDC ATX powersupply -- no inverter needed.  It puts out 150
watts, which is more than enough for the HD and Epia.  I think I'm using 65 of the 150
watts, IIRC.

The cool thing is that when the power supply comes on, it has a lead that you connect 
to
the power switch on the MB.  It's just like pressing the power key.  When I get in and
turn the key on, the PC is playing music in about 20 seconds.
