Ok, im going to be as clear as possable. This laptop is freaking sweet! i switched from the panasonic toughbook CF-18, and i have owned several other models and this one blows it out the water! Someone commented about the weather seal and there wrong because the material used creates a air tight seal unlike the dry hard rubber used by panasonic, also the internal seals like the one on the bottom lid when removed is really high quality. the seals are quite flexable and do not wear esaly. also the port covers are great, they latch and lock which means if u drop it theres no chance of it poping open. i have already gotten it pretty wet and durty and have had no problems. Not really mentioned in the specs is the fact that dit has some very advanced integrated security like the intel anti-theft but also it has a utility that recures a smart card or fingerprint pre-boot right out of the bios! touchscreen is great and can be configured to beep on contact and the frequency and duration of the sound is fully customizable! Also to address the SD card issue saying that its impossable to use is incorrect, all u have to do is pull on the rubber handle slightly to insert the SD card.
