Dell Launches its First Rugged Laptop
By: Tech2.com News Staff   |   Mar 08,2008
Dell has unveiled its first fully ruggedized laptop, the Latitude XFR D630.

The rugged laptop, intended for government and commercial customers, is available in the U.S. and starts at $3,899.

The Latitude XFR D630 meets MIL-STD 810F standards from the Department of Defense for products that operate in extreme temperatures, moisture and altitude. The system shares common images and components with Dell's current line of Latitude laptops to greatly simplify deployment and maintenance.

"The Latitude XFR D630 represents a tectonic shift towards simplicity in the ruggedized laptop space," said Brett McAnally, director, Dell Product Group. "We are taking a multi-dimensional approach that focuses on simplified deployment, service and durability without sacrificing performance. Major competitors focus their efforts on 'rugged' only."

The Latitude XFR D630 also features outdoor readable screen at 500 nits, integrated resistive touch technology to easily interface with the system, shock isolated mounting to help protect hard drive, LCD and core electronic elements, dual locking butterfly mechanisms for easy access to components and a sealed keyboard designed to withstand driving rain and dust.

Hey RickRock, I'd like to bang your head on this laptop's keyboard and slam the lid shut to test its rigidity.

I think there should be rules for posting comments (and articles as well).
e.g.
1) Commentators (and writers) must know something about technology.
2) There should be a sound discrimination between the commentator and a doormat.
3) Commentators must be able to type and keep their mouth shut simultaneously to stop from drooling all over the keyboard and their crotch.

By the way, RickRock, let me know what "rugged seems to be the key word for sucess" means, and it's not for marketing executives, you pitiably retarded shrimp.

You may now kiss my WiFi enabled Peter Parker. Rot in hell.
