Tough Customers

When you're in the field, you need a laptop that can stand up to a lot of wear and tear. That's why many fire and police departments, utility and construction companies go with the Toughbook. Whether it's being dropped, shaken, soaked or actually run over by a truck in one instance, the Toughbook - like our Tough customers - stands up to just about anything you can throw at it.

"The Panasonic Toughbooks are tough, they take a beating. They get wet, they get hit, they get dropped, they get kicked around. And they are reliable day in and day out." said Captain James Garcia of the Chula Vista Fire Department in Chula Vista, CA.

"Sometimes computers get dropped. And, if it's not a rugged Toughbook computer, it isn't going to survive." said Wayne Bennett, engine support engineer for Access Motorsports in Plano, TX.

"Since we have changed to Panasonic Toughbooks, I don't worry about failures any more. It is always reliable. It always works. I have had the Panasonic laptop get wet working in the rain. I just dried it off and put it back in the docking station and go." said Ken Del Franco, troubleman for Southern California Edison in Rosemead, CA.

"I never foresaw that any machine would withstand the abuse this Toughbook took and still operate. I am now completely confident that we made the right decision." said Sergeant James Patterson of the Alabama Highway Partol in Montgomery, AL.

"Ciales is a heavy mountain area and is off road. You keep driving, keep bouncing on the inside of everything, and the Toughbook, it's like nothing happened. I keep doing my job, don't lose my data, and I'm good to go." said Jose Delatorre, a Centennial out of network performance technician in Puerto Rico.
