Apparently I have a habit of making things break so I have jokingly been 
suggested to get a ToughBook the next time.  They may be what you are 
looking for?

"Our rugged Toughbook line has been designed using MIL-STD-810F test 
procedures to measure levels of environmental reliability. Created by 
the U.S. government, the MIL-STD-810F specifications cover a broad range 
of tests that measure the durability of equipment used under harsh 
conditions. From the MIL-STD-810F test menu, Panasonic selected those 
that most closely reflect the challenges that mobile professionals face 
in the field, on the road, and in the office. These tests include drop-, 
shock-, moisture-, dust- and vibration-resistance, exposure to extremely 
low and high temperatures, and many others."
