RE: Notebook Choices

That is awesome Peter.

We had a sale rep at my previous employer that was mugged on the way home in
New Jersey. They grabbed her notebook case, that was clearly a notebook case
and not a purse, opened it and tossed the Toshiba notebook (that back then
was brand new and VERY expensive; this was around 10 years ago) and grabbed
her purse and took off. She sent me the notebook, pleading with me to get
her contact list off of it, etc. The screen was SHATTERED (boop, sha, doobie
for you Stones fans) and the case was busted all up. The keyboard was
hanging off of it. I checked for any broken wires, etc. and fired it up. It
ran FINE. Unreal :-)

Hi Chuck!

This reminded me of a TV Shopping Channel (I can;t remember the name) but it
is this guy 
that is always selling electronic stuff, specially PCs, laptops, etc. and 
he was selling this laptop that was "indestructible", resisting hits, 
pouring of liquids on it, etc. :o) 

I mean, he literally played a DVD movie, closed the laptop, placed the 
laptop on the floor and stood over the laptop while he was explaining the 
virtues of this "unique" laptop.  Then, he moved to a side, opened it and 
the movie was still playing.

Some sort of a TONKA LAPTOP... jajaja!

Just wanted to share this with you.

Regards,

Peter
