Title: Panasonic Toughbook CF-W7
Pros: Spill-resistant keyboard; drop-proof; stomp-proof
Cons: Far from attractive; pricey compared to ordinary laptops

Cons: Bulky and ugly; ports and connections are not protected; ho-hum performance; dated 4:3 aspect display; circular touchpad is difficult to use.
Verdict: The Panasonic Toughbook CF-W7 manages to be lightweight and awkwardly bulky, but this rugged ultraportable offers excellent protection for business travelers who are extra rough on their systems.

Title: Panasonic Toughbook CF-52
Pros: Built-in handle; doesn't skimp on connections; includes wireless broadband and 802.11n; extremely sturdy.
Cons: Bulky and heavy; vulnerable optical drive; not configurable.
Verdict: If you need a laptop that can withstand a lot of abuse without spending a fortune on an all-out fully rugged model, the Panasonic Toughbook CF-52 offers ample peace of mind plus the latest Centrino Duo components.
