Panasonic Toughbook 18 Touchscreen PC version

Panasonic Toughbook 18 Touchscreen PC version ... exploit Intel Centrino Mobile Technology platform's unparalleled ability to streamline internal computer instruction operations, increase real-world computing efficiency and prolong battery life. Advanced instruction prediction is used to pre-load instructions based on past program behavior for smoother, faster transitions between operations; power-optimized logic regulates consumption and dissipation levels for lower CPU average power, and intelligent power distribution circuitry focuses the system power where the CPU needs it most. Intel Centrino mobile technology communications enhancements include the Intel PRO/Wireless Network Connection 802.11b WLAN support and advanced encryption and security technology for Virtual Private Networks.

Screen readability, a determinant factor in the usefulness of all portable computers, is especially critical in touchscreen applications where the user must be able to see well enough to write, draw and complete forms on the screen rather than just read text. An optional, transflective SVGA LCD display on the CF-18 Touchscreen PC delivers extraordinary brightness in all operating environments, while the Tablet PC's magnetically digitized display is precision engineered to optimize handwriting recognition, drafting and other freehand data-entry tasks.

From the bottom of its full magnesium-alloy case - manufactured by Panasonic in its own state-of-the-art metal-fabrication facility - to its sealed port and connector covers, ruggedized case hinge and moisture- and dust-resistant LCD, keyboard and touchpad, the Toughbook 18 has been designed to equal or better the durability standards of all previous fully ruggedized Toughbooks. Both the screen and hard drive are impact isolated and the entire computer has been tested for compliance with MIL STD 810F requirements for four-corner and flat-side shock and vibration absorption, and liquid, dirt and dust ingress protection in extreme operating environments.
