Panasonic Gets Tough with ToughBooks

Panasonic Gets Tough with ToughBooks

These new notebooks from Panasonic aren't as "rugged" as the Ruffneck Zone 1, but they can handle quite a spill. They are made to be able to withstand a fall of up to 30-inches, or about desk height, and also feature a spill-resistant keyboard. That doesn't mean we suggest going swimming with one of these. One great feature of these ToughBooks is their light weight. The 10.4-inch R7 weighs in at only 2.1 pounds, with the 12.4-inch W7 weighing only 2.8 pounds, and the 14.1-inch Y7 weighing 3.3 pounds. All of the ToughBooks come with a low-voltage Core 2 Duo Processor, with a base configuration of 1 GB of RAM and an 80 GB hard drive, all which can be opted for more heavy gear. These notebooks will ship in Japan through October and November.
