What are your favorite insane laptops?

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

    Impractical. Why would anyone ever need so many screens on the go?

      Seems like the sort of thing that might be used to set up like a mobile command station or something. If a disaster occurs and some agency/organization needs to stand up operations at a new location immediately, things like that

      Definitely highly situational, but I’m sure some organizations out there are willing to pay a pretty penny for convenience during those types of situations.

      “Impractical. Why would anyone ever need so many screens on the go?”

      For the same reason why cars that can’t ride over the slightest speed bumps are sold: low self-esteem and a high urge to stroke one’s own ego.
