I have Panasonic toughbook CF-29. Bought it new and it has worked
flawlessly for over 5 years. Im using it now.
For 14 months I drug it across airports from MSY to PDX and all over
the GOM on a skanky 4 point anchor boat while workign as an AB. It got
rained on slid of my lap and bounced across a steel deck. It works
great.

Get used or refurb for $450. For that price Id buy two. everything
else is for sissys.
