Us toughbook guys need a general too, so lets show those thinkpad neckbeards who's got a REAL indestructible laptop!

Why toughbooks? - A quick ebay search suggests they havent had the price inflation of memepads, you can get a toughbook equivalent to a thinkpad for less than half the price! Plus its even more rugged and just as many features!

After breaking two at work, my father bought a rugged laptop for work, and it still holds, while it does the job for him. I manage the software and OS and stuff remotely, whenever he needs help.

He still hates the hell out of that thing.

The only deal is that they look great, but that's about it. My ThinkPad weights a hell of a lot and these are even worse.

Also, let's be honest, more than 95% of lurkers here have absolutely no practical use of a rugged laptop.

Both are toughbooks.

Browsing on a CF-53, I also have a CF-47 and a CF-30. Truly, they're the master race of laptops.

Have CF-19mk2, used it for a year as my main computer. Upgraded to 4Gb ram and 120gb noname ssd. Has usual toughbook options - touchscreen, wwan, bt.

Build quality is second to none but they have issues. Battery life is only 4 hours, screen while bright is muddy yellowish mess.
