CD changer/mp3 jukebox and amp equipment in the boot conected by serial
(or USB I imagine) to a led display unit in the front.
With the 1 U rack system there is no head unit per se.
But I do see where you're going, a PC104 device would be well
suited,  not just for this but for things like;

home security devices
portable mp3 players
portable comms devices
robots
explosives
surveillance equipment

it's all very cool, but right at the moment, unattainable as far as I 
can see...
