What are your favorite insane laptops?
Mine is the Dell Rugged: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9F56ION4_n0
Bump and fall proof, liquid proof, sand proof (and cat hairs proof I assume), extreme heat/cold proof, can be used as a blunt weapon in an emergency. Ridiculously overkill for anyone that’s not a geologist working in Antarctica or an archaeologist in the Gobi desert, and ridiculously overkill is fun
yea and then you install windows on it
95 obviously, for the vibes
This bad boy can take two 5.25"s at same time.
Same
TWO floppy readers? 😮
My father had an Osborne 1. Loved it, played so many hours of Space Invaders on it. :)
ThinkPad W701DS. Depending on configuration it has an intergrated Wacom digitiser w/ pen, a built-in Pantone colorimeter, two RAIDed hard drives and of course the glorious second screen that pops out.
The w700ds/w701ds (“Dual Screen”)
… was not Lenovo’s last try at putting two screens on a laptop; see also the X1 Fold and Yoga 9i
Those things aren’t nearly as cool, though (IMO)
I was laughing my ass off at the “two 250GB hard drives” until I saw that the video was 16 years old 😮
Those things aren’t as rugged as they imply. Go for a brief jaunt and skip a little while swinging it by the handle. It’ll turn into a laptop shaped projectile and leave a dent in both the ground and your wallet.

Wow, that looks like something I’d drag to LAN parties in the late 90s.
Reminds me of SOL, a solar powered rugged laptop running Ubuntu. I think they are on that for the past 10 years or something.
I won’t lie that’s pretty cool!
Who’s going to start the YouTube channel for it called “Kennit?” where you see just what you can use it to do? First episode should be as an oar.
That’s needs to happen! I also want to see if it can be used effectively as a tennis racket.
Panasonic Toughbook CF-XZ6
I’ve got a CF-25 here. I keep meaning to find the power supply and seeing if it still works :)
