Panasonic toughbooks are:
>extremely repairable
>extremely upgradable
>available with great keyboards
>the MOST durable laptops available
>actually cheap and abundant
Basically, they're everything the thinkpad meme sells itself as. They're better than all business machines because they're built for industry, NOT business - and they're built to last. They have legacy hardware support and intergenerational standards (many generations share the same dock, for example). The only downsides I can think of is the heft (all the better to gatekeep manlets and wristlets) and the lack of a track point.
