Some of the brands I've used: Panasonic Toughbook (I'm typing this on a CF-18) Itronix (old 6250, ix250, ix260) Getac (some old - some new)
Even though most of them aren't natively 12VDC, they often have 12V auto adpaters available. I used to have one for my CF27 that worked well. I've got a few 12V input to ATX output adapters that I think are around 200W total. They can be used with most of the Mini-ITX systems out there in various forms. Depending on your application, there have been a bunch of IX250 and IX260 systems on Epay recently. A lot of the selection process boils down to whether you need laptops are vehicle mountable systems. Ramline and Hammerhead make some nice vehicle-mount systems, but I've never owned one personally. 73 N5VFF/YI9VFF - Brian On 1/30/07, John Bradley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Talk to your local police/state police about how they dispose of older car computers. most of these are like the Panasonic "tough book" a very robust windows computer which could be used for our purposes. Our SAR teams have inherited some , and they work well. John VE5MU
