Hardened Laptops
Although there has been a lot of writing around Panasonics’ Toughbook, there is another big player, Itronix, when it comes to deploying ‘ruggedized’ notebooks in the difficult military environment. It is also preferred choice for many boaters.
“The worst test (those with a sensitive disposition may want to skip this part) was to load up a Barney game on the machine and deploy them to kids at a pool. The tots actually played the program underwater and surprisingly the Itronix survived even though there were other (unnamed) notebooks in the test apparently that didn’t.”
Did the toughbook survive the underwater usage??
