I am wondering how you could use the power outputed by the car to power a laptop, I hear you can get cigarette adapters but I want is so as soon as I turn the car on the laptop boots up. I've read it has been done before but I lost the article this info will get me started on my next project.

They do make ac adapters for laptops...contact the manufacturer of the laptop to find an adapter for that particular model ($30-$100).

Or just go to Radio Shack and get a power inverter. Get a 400W one with 2 power outlets and some security features like auto switch off on low battery, battery overchage, over heat.

I got one for 80$+/- Canadian.
