Gotta respect Panasonic for identifying an underserved market and crushing it for almost 30 years.


Getac and Dell are active there, particularly for law enforcement. There's a good youtube channel[1] that compares them all from time to time.

I have a ruggedized Dell. It's not nearly as tough as the Panasonic I used, but it's tough enough. On the other hand, it is much more useable.

I don't know if that's a brand or model difference.


Yes I am surprised no one else went for it

Great example of riches are in niches


Not no one. There is also getac, durabook, rugged series of some dell laptops, there is (was?) itrinix and probably a bit more that I don't really know of :)


I’ll drop ruggedpcreview.com here- no affiliation but have checked once in a while for years; they have a lot of press releases, if not reviews, of the rugged PCs available.
