You should be able to get a 12v charger for your laptop, worst case scenario is to get a small 200W inverter and use that...

You can stil usually get a 12V supply for it, something like this:
AC/DC MAINS + IN CAR UNIVERSAL LAPTOP CHARGER/PSU 5A 12V/15V/16V/18V/19V/22V/24V | eBay
I used one of these for a 10 inch netbook. But I found the sucker wasn't enough to hold the netbook while greenlaning.
So I unscrewed the sucker and made a bracket that bolted to the dash and it's been tiptop ever since.
Now changed to an iPad and it fits exactly the same.
If you need any more info or pictures PM me.

Last pics of my netbook and mount, but since getting an iPad now use dash mount. The tube on bottom of plate has got a cut up the middle that slides over the flat bit of metal under the ashtray.
If anyone is interested I have my 6 month old samsung net book ( one in the picture ) complete with 2012 MM maps of great britain it also has my iTunes library of 5000 songs. Comes complete with in car charger, GPS dongle and case. Just switch on and go. Open to sensible offers.

and just thought I'd add that any screen over 7" facing the driver is going to get you in poop the the law if Mr Plod spots you
but seems most of you are thinking in terms of off-roading use I guess Mr Plod isn't going to be to waiting half way down a Green Lane

Are you sure on this? As long as the screen is displaying either vehicle or navigation information I didnt believe there was a limit on the size. Not saying your wrong but I am sure when I use to go to various ICE training days we was told there wasn't a limit as long as its relevant information...

If it blocks your view out of the front windscreen then Yes
Not 100% true, only if it blocks your view of the wiped area of the screnn, outside the wipe zone doesnt matter...

Theres not a lot of "outside the wiper zone" that your going to stick a screen in is there
