I have worked on a particular model of HP,once it develops a particular problem no remedy, u would have to sell it as scrap or keep it at home
DELL all the way, you cant hate it, u av to love it

get a toughbook.
dunno watchu mean by rugged, but i've seen it fully immersed in a swimming pool and i was still able to type with it underwater. Tht same lappy was left to fall freely from a 2 storey building, it landed and had a scratch and its still working.

The owner of the laptop recovered the money for the lappy by putting it on bets and doing wht his dudes tot the lappy couldnt do.

I have a problem with its shape though, its just fat and ugly.
I also have a problem with the price

Lenovo(former IBM PC division) makes the most standard durable everyday laptop.  I did some crazy demos with Lenovo notebooks and still worked.It could hold up to 150lbs, that helps give the screen and additional layer of protection.  Panasonic tough book is for customized environment and is very expensive. Check out Lenovo T/R/W series.
