Rugged Pc

A rugged (or ruggedized, but also ruggedised) computer is a computer specifically designed to reliably operate in harsh usage environments and conditions, such as strong vibrations, extreme temperatures and wet or dusty conditions. They are designed from inception for the type of rough use typified by these conditions, not just in the external housing but in the internal components as well. In general, ruggedized and hardened computers share the same design robustness and frequently these terms are interchangeable.[original research?]

Typical end-user environments for rugged laptops, tablet PCs and PDAs are public safety, field sales, field service, manufacturing, retail, healthcare, transportation/distribution and the military.They are used in the agricultural industries and by individuals for recreational activities, as well, such as hunting or geocaching.
