GoBook VR-2 Goes Core 2 Duo and Semi-Rugged

General Dynamics Itronix has announced its GoBook VR-2, a semi-rugged notebook computer designed to stand up to the bumps and grit of mobile computing. Made with the needs of mobile workers in mind – field service, public safety, military applications, and commercial endeavors – the offers touchscreen computing, wireless connectivity, and Core 2 Duo processing in a tough-yet-ergonomic package.

"This next-generation semi-rugged product represents the culmination of our expertise in designed-in ruggedness, integrated wireless capabilities and performance, with cutting-edge display innovation for unparalleled outdoor touchscreen display viewability," said Ben Thacker, General Dynamics Itronix’s VP of strategic marketing. "Based on customer input, these features were designed to deliver a best-in-class, semi-rugged notebook that is flexible and well suited for vehicle-based and office-based mobile workers."

Need a Really Rugged Laptop?

We’re sure you’re familiar with laptops and notebook computers aimed at general consumers: they tend to focus on slim designs, designer colors, sleek profiles, flavor-of-the-month features like Webcams and VoIP communications, and maybe being able to read your memory cards without booting into Windows. But, you know, if you drop them, they’re pretty much history. Move them from hot-and-humid to cool-and-dry, the condensation might kill them. Cases come apart, hinges have short lifespans, latches break…well, let’s just say they often don’t last long in the real world.
