Ruggedized notebooks are not just for industrial use anymore

There was a time when ruggedized notebooks and tablet PCs were too costly and impractical for the general public to use in their everyday commute to the office or for adventure enthusiasts to take one on a safari exploration. Today portable computers and derivatives of that technology, whether smart phones or Apple iPads™, are becoming an indispensable part of our everyday lifestyle.

Our precious data, contacts and information need to be protected from vanishing from hard drives embedded in our portable computers when they are accidentally dropped, preventing endless numbers of hours to replace the missing data, let alone the high cost of replacing the delicate LCDs.

That is why more users are considering robust portables notebooks that are not made to be pampered. Lucky for you the price of such portables have come down and are becoming more and more affordable. Take, for instance, the new Getac S400 which was just released last month. This 14- inch semi-rugged notebook packs a punch supported by both Intel i3 and i5 processors. The screen produces 700 NITS, and features a Multi-touch display that is glove- friendly and water resistant. The keyboard is also water resistant and the keys are backlit, making them easy to see in a dark environment. Behind the keyboard the S400 is supported by Getac’s new KryptoShell™ body material. This body material gives this notebook the capabilities to surpass MIL-STD-810G temperature, shock and vibration specifications, including a 2.5- foot drop on six facessides of the notebook.

The notebook’s mounting ports are also located in the rear, making it easily mounted inside a vehicle and thus reducing the clutter of wires that can often crowd the driver and passengers. All these innovative features make this laptop suitable for almost every industry, ranging from construction, public safety, EMS and many more. The Getac S400 notebook is portable, great looking and rugged enough to go where you go.
