Technology -Trendy or Useful?

[BAd124]

I havent been frequenting this forum too much lately so forgive me if this has already been discussed.
It seems that everycar is eventually going to have an optional LCD display of some type availible. I love tech gadgets as much as any other tech freak out there but I think that these latest trends are getting out of control. Is there really a need to have video games/DVD/VCR/internet availible in a car. I am not talking about a mini van that these things are used to shut kids up. I am talking about cars that are meant to be driven. it seems that anyone with extra money goes and puts these things in thier car. Shouldnt you get a car because you like driving it not because you want to put a few small screens in it so you can impress people? On MTV's Cribs I saw a rapper who put one in his steering wheel! Brilliant cause theres going to be tons of time to watch that. Too bad he sacrificed the airbag for that and probably increased his likelyhood of getting injured when the screen breaks in a crash. Oh well at least it wouldnt be a big loss(too bad about the car though hehe). My point being, if your car is that boring that you need outside entertainment to enhance it, you shouldnt have bought the car in the first place. Sorry just wanted to get this off my chest.
