I've been leaning toward a mini-ITX fanless system - with a fan in the case and a 12 volt power supply. Heat is nearly as bad for electronics as water. So we are running in a hostile environment. The other issue is mounting. An ITX case is small and can be tucked in almost any corner. The display can be wall mounted. No need to take up precious horizontal filing space. The screen is still a problem for me. I've yet to find one at a reasonable price that runs on 12 volts. Get yourself a used Toughbook, and call it good.... -- Bruce in Alaska add path before the @ for email |
