# Operating Temperature:
Operating 0-45 C, # Storage Temperature: -20 to 60 C I'm afraid as tough as that computer is it wouldn't survive a Canadian winter. Heck it wouldn't even survive in my igloo over the winter

yeah i noticed that all the PCs that the military uses aren't very powerful, but i guess its because they don't rly need cutting edge technology to guide a missile, or do all the lil things in battle.

Their software isn't very demanding. Most of it is used for Excel, Word, PDFs, and plotting coordinates on a gps map system, and just typing back and forth. Most of it is Linux, the rest Windows 2K NT..

used by some groups of the military, along with countless other "rough service" fields:
http://getac.com/index.aspx great specs as well - but these laptops and computers come at a hefty price. Cheapest I've seen the A790 going for was a cool $7000; they average at $9000. but check out their testing methods, and what they rate their systems capable of withstanding

A team member of our does it. All though he don't get to test them by droping them and so forth but he does that heat testing on them.

i think the PCs in the link are actually not nessesary, they might as have gotten a rugged laptop that is lighter and smaller instead of logging around this "sewing machine" like box into enemy territory. a weak sales tactic if you ask me.

Also oddly enough for the average computer user checking email ect, a P3 class chip with 512mb of ram and windows XP is fine for them, heck if they run 2000 they can use just 256mb of mem and a P2 450 to check email and they will be just fine. |

I don't think any place in the military is running any PIII of any type to be honest. They were in a constant influx of units to replace older ones that were out of warranty. Last time I saw a PIII workstation in the USAF was back in 2003? At that point the P4 was pretty much the standard.

even so, the P4 is still outdated. Depending on the unit, etc, computers are generally OLD. :\

I've been using my Dolch for over 10 years!
See attached image.
My Dolch has been chuggin along since 1998 - including falling out my loose car door at 70MPH on way to airport!!! Yes it did boot up at the airport...just had some new rattlin inside! This machine is indeed military grade in every respect. The only thing that knocked it out was a lightning strike on July 4, 2005. LOL jtleon
