There are some places that Notebook computers are simply not meant to go…such as places that are dusty, wet or subject to extreme vibrations.
However there are some jobs that are constantly exposed to these conditions that also require the use of a computer…which is where a Toughbook comes in handy.
Panasonic’s latest Toughbook (CF-31 Mk2) can withstand a drop from 1.8 meters and meets military certification for shock, drop, vibration, extreme temperatures and high altitude.
It also scores an IP65 rating against dust and water which means no dust can get in and even a small water jet won’t impact the computer.
The price tag for such a tough device…around the 6 thousand dollar mark. You can see the Toughbook being book through the ‘tough’ tests at www.toughbook.com.au.
