You're not wrong there! :-o I do think that apart from the benefits of SSDs in laptops, once the price:capacity ratio is a bit better, that there is a market for armoured laptops. Not as massive as the full-spec Panasonic Toughbooks, like these ones: http://sterlingxs.co.uk/scpages/panasonictoughbooklaptopcf27.html ... But a slightly less mil-spec but still tougher-than-average one. Laptops are taking more & more of the PC market & they tend to lead very hard lives. Just something a bit more like the "executive" Toughbooks: http://www.microanvika.com/product.asp?PNO=PAN14402 & indeed all these: http://www.microanvika.com/search.asp?keywords=toughbook Look more or less like a standard notebook PC, but can take being dropped, hit, liquid spills, closed with objects inside and so on. -- Liam Proven • Profile: http://www.linkedin.com/in/liamproven Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk • GMail/GoogleTalk/Orkut: lpro...@gmail.com Tel: +44 20-8685-0498 • Cell: +44 7939-087884 • Fax: + 44 870-9151419 AOL/AIM/iChat, Yahoo & Skype: liamproven MSN: lpro...@hotmail.com • ICQ: 73187508 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
