    TwinHead notebooks have the latest specs including Intel Santa Rosa processor chips. Its keyboard is spill-resistant; above this, its Durabook series have 3D Shock-Sensor for harddrive protection and the Durabook series is even made to military specs in terms of durability.

    So what do you, owners of TwinHead notebooks, think ?

    Twinhead notebooks are usually rebadged and sold with other labels, usually the budget brands such as Averatec. They are normally very competitively priced so there are compromises somewhere. They would not be my choice if reliability and durability are key factors in the purchasing decision and can't really be compared with a T61 or similar.
