My toughbook addiction is too much. I need a fully rugged toughpad for use in shower/jacuzzi/swimming/sauna/extreme outdoors. I don't mind 5" screen but prefer windows over android. Good speakers are a plus.

OP you're just like me, I take my Toughbooks everywhere, even to the shower to keep track of a IRC channel or play some Deus Ex.

Yes, i'm that of a nerd. I actually am playing it right now on my 19, currently at the UNATCO base talking to Manderley.

Yes but make sure you have it buttoned up tight so it doesn't suffer the same fate as the 18.

That's why I brought a AC port cover and asked my dad to fix the crack on the back cover (glued it closed and it's almost invisible now)

Hope you did not buy one from them overseas sellers. Them China ones don't have the rubber seal around them. ..not water proof.

Been there done that, the same guy who had the caddy also had a genuine CF-19 AC port cover.
