[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] Recommendations for Sturdy Laptops wanted

emery@linus.mitre.org (David Emery) (11/22/90)

I'm soliciting recommendations for sturdy laptops.  I'm particularly
interested in '386 or '386SX machines with at least 40mb hard disks.
By sturdy I mean the following:
	sturdy case
	power supply that can accept less than perfect power
	ability to operate in high temperatures
	reasonably tolerant of sand and dirt
	
If the above didn't give you a hint, if I get called up to go "play in
the sand" in Saudi Arabia, I want to take a laptop with me.  I can't
say that price is no object, but I'm willing to spend a reasonable
amount of money for a machine that won't die after 3 days in the
desert. 

I'll summarize to the net.

		thanks in advance
