Rugged notebooks for the military

Itronix, in town for an arms fair, has shown off two laptops targeted at the military and other users of rugged notebooks.

One was a Tablet PC in which the processor is in a sealed compartment, water-cooled with pipes leading out to a heat exchanger.

The one pictured right, is classified as semi-rugged, which means it is sturdier than an average notebook. It’s designed for field workers who need a strong machine but it wouldn’t survive a nearby bomb. More details can be found at www.itronix.com.
