Pimp my trade show: The hot rods of CES
Posted by Brier Dudley
LAS VEGAS -- The cars at CES are not to be missed. A whole wing of the show is devoted to automotive products, and full of supercars converted to rolling showcases of speakers, stereos, onboard computers and iPod connectors.
Cars are also moving into the main show as Microsoft and other big players extend their digital entertainment and communication technology beyond the PC and the living room, into new devices that work with or in vehicles.
But enough about the business stuff. Here are some of the coolest cars I saw at this year's show.
