Slate has a feature about the laptop that's getting play in the Middle East - Itronix's Go Book Max. "We drop each one 54 times from one meter, bake it in an oven, chill it in a freezer, vibrate it, and submit it to a shower of hurricane proportions," says Itronix materials. Itronix describes itself as being leaders in the "field computing" industry, and they specialize for field service, government, utilities, public safety, telco, and other areas. Cool. It's what Indiana Jones would have used. Slate thinks it'll be a hit with parents who already have the hefty SUVs and crazy kids spilling things, knocking things over. As someone who has fucked up a laptop due to spilt water, sign me up, too.
