Lightweight Notebook Built Panasonic Tough

"Panasonic's Toughbook line hasn't only been impressing in extreme durability lately, but also in extreme weight-loss. Joining the 3.2-pound Tougbook C1, is the newest 12.1-inch Toughbook S9, which weighs just three pounds. And yes, Panny's claiming it's the lightest 12-incher with an optical drive, and our quick research seems to prove that claim right."

There was a time when the Panasonic Toughbooks were hefty behemoths that had considerable extra weight to make them last the abuse Toughbooks are famous to handling. The new Toughbooks do not look too different from more traditional laptops, but the specifications and price tell a different story. For those of you who want a notebook that can weather storms on a boat, or stand ready for you at a construction site, you might not have any other choice. To be honest though, I would likely end up buying two or three laptops and just keep the others as spares instead of going with one like this. What about you?
