Top 10 Computer Uses in an RV
I could probably come up with 100 uses! But, here are my top ten. I’ve divided them into two categores, *with* and *without* an Internet connection. How to connect to the Internet on the road is a popular, ever-changing topic. I write in detail about all 3 ways (Wi-Fi, Satellite, and Cellular) in my article, Internet To Go. The links below are to past articles I’ve written here on the RV.net blog.
Without an Internet connection:
1. GPS navigation and trip-planing
2. Managing your Digital Photos
3. Watching TV or Movies on DVD
With an Internet connection
4. Researching Destinations online
5. Email
6. Sharing photos online – movie example
7. Blogging!
8. Banking
9. Listening to Radio
And, probably the most important use of our computers:
10. Working! – making our website – our website gives us the income that makes our fulltime RV life possible!

#1 use for a computer in an RV… Reading the RV.NET Blog!

The “battery” thread is of interest to me in that the “house” I intend to power(at least partially) with my electric car batteries is actually my “house on wheels”.
oops, sorry. wrong thread
