    On Wednesday I was out 130 miles from my office ALL DAY on Wednesday. It took me 2 hours to get there and two hours to get home and I was there for 4.5 hours... I had my Toughbook on and running doing work on it the ENTIRE TIME.

    I left the room because I had work to do else ware and I was having a guy run some cable for me as well and he accidentally dropped a whole entire gypsum ceiling tile right on my open Toughbook... Hit the screen and keyboard. White powder EVERYWHERE OMG! My computer had crap all over it... I just picked it up, turned it over shook it a little and continued on my way... :D

    THANK GOD I HAVE A TOUGHBOOK!

    He didn't say anything... I asked him about it and he said "I think your computer is fine cuz it's a military computer"

    At that point you should have said "Yes, it is military and here comes the retaliatory air strike" as you grab the handle and clock him with it! Now you get to walk around with a TB that looks as though it has a cocaine problem!
