Ultra resistant notebook

My last post was related to ultraportable notebooks, but now i would like to focus on different type of portable computers. This group is called ultra resistant.

World moves forward. In the journey, even in the most remote nooks of the world, far far away from the civilization... we need not only a knife, lighter, flashlight, clothes and canister of petrol, but also possibility of communication by the computer.


One of the most popular manufacturer of resistant notebooks is Panasonic. anasonic is also very well known of it's incredibly tough, well made and really expensive series of notebooks called ToughBooks. Let's take a closer look on specification of model cf-t8: weight 1.3 kg, screen size 12", made of steel and magnesium. As you can see it is really interesting combination of components. This feature in a special way protects against damage LCD display and hard drive. Cf-t8 can survive fall 75 cm of height and 100 kg of pressure. The specially designed splash resistant keyboard drain off the liquid and don't allow to reach in the electronic components. It's also equipped with GPRS modem and touch screen, so we can confortable connect to the network everywhere we are. Allow to work in all conditions for 8 hours on a single charge at the super fast processor and powerful graphics.

I am lucky because I had a chance to work on it. My first impression was: hmmm looks like cheap made of plastic toy for people who has to much money. I was wrong. New series characterize not only small weight, but also well overthink reliable construction. It allows to eliminate one of most frequent reason of damage, that happen in daily work. Integrated handle ensures comfortable to wear, as well as safe, convenient transport.


There are several companies producing armored laptops, for example: Itronix or GETAC, but there are not as popular.

So have you ever been in a situation where your computer fall from desktop, or fall out of your hands, and you thought that one day you will have the device that is more toughter?
