    Hi, I'm new to the forum and am interested in the toughbook. I have a shop where repair heavy duty trucks and looking for a tough laptop that can be used outside and handle the elements of a shop. I'm not a computer wiz, just trying to find out what's best for our application. the software we use runs best on windows 7. We're obviously looking to purchased a used/refurbished unit for this task. I don't need it in a real big hurry so let me know what you have or what you can put together.

    Most truck shops use Panasonic Toughbook
    CF-19 which have a 10.1" screen
    or
    CF-31 which have a 13.1" screen.
    Both are touchscreen.
