It's probably an ultra low voltage cpu, so that it doesn't generate too much heat, so that they could avoid having to have a fan, so that it could be water resistant.]]>Jul 15th 2010 6:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/getac-tosses-1-2ghz-core-i7-into-ultra-rugged-v100-convertible-l/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/getac-tosses-1-2ghz-core-i7-into-ultra-rugged-v100-convertible-l/"inbuilt"

No fan, its sealed for dust/dirt and water resistance. The military used to have these things custom built before companies started manufacturing them. I used one that was encased in olive drag epoxy coated steel and had thumb screw doors that covered the connection ports and cd drive tray. They said you could drop it from a moving vehicle at decent speeds and not hurt it.]]>Jul 16th 2010 5:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/getac-tosses-1-2ghz-core-i7-into-ultra-rugged-v100-convertible-l/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/getac-tosses-1-2ghz-core-i7-into-ultra-rugged-v100-convertible-l/Heard a story about a delivery guy who put a Toughbook on top of his truck, forgot it, then drove away and somehow drove over it. Cracked the screen but the lappy still worked fine. Yes, they are that tough, and yes, that's why they cost "you've gotta be kidding me" dollars, unlike the regular consumer-grade laptops that fray power cables and blow video cards at the thought of moving them.]]>Jul 16th 2010 7:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/getac-tosses-1-2ghz-core-i7-into-ultra-rugged-v100-convertible-l/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/getac-tosses-1-2ghz-core-i7-into-ultra-rugged-v100-convertible-l/Oh, and yes, I've had experience with Toughboosk and Dells, they are well-made.

I feal ya... but...

In the novelization and early movie scripts, the AllSpark is referred to as "the Energon Cube". It is also referred to as "the Cube" several times in the film itself.

The people who use them do not give two craps about glowing logos, brushed aluminum, and pretty graphics on a glossy surface.

Dude what are you talking about? I don't own one, nor will I buy one. It has nothing to do w/my image because I don't tie my image or self worth to my gadgets. Maybe you do but not me. I just simply wondered why can't companies make tough rugged computers that are visually nice.
