Re: The Toughbook FZ-40 is here!!

I like it, yes it is expensive but it's horses for courses isn't it. A Mac user pays alot for a Mac because it does what they need it to do especially things like audio abd or video editing. Toughbooks are expensive because of their strength and now modularity that helps them to live in extremely ha...

Re: I need a new(er) fast(er) CF-19, MK5 vs MK6???
