3 Rugged Notebooks Take a Beating

Posted by timothy on from the catharsis-defined dept.

bsk_cw writes "Brian Nadel got a chance to try to destroy three 'fully rugged' notebooks and get paid for it — Computerworld had him drop, spray, drown, bake, shake, and freeze notebooks from General Dynamics Itronix, Getac, and Panasonic. All three suffered some damage, but only the Getac M230 actually died as a result. Brian made videos of the tests (which were apparently done in his home, including his kitchen)."

    You're not married, you're a nerd that thinks pre-emptively ragging on yourself will make you seem less gay.
