To answer both questions, yes, we have a 12 volts power supply like a car system.

A high end laptop is expensive, and still does not avoid the issue of 12 volts up to 110 then back to 12. And yea, I need the 5 volts. I want to connect it to a ATX computer motherboard.

I can build a custom computer a LOT cheaper than a high end laptop, and if I need to upgrade or add to it, that is easy. A laptop does nothing except make it hard to configure, and spend a lot of cash.
