Laptops/Tablets
Notebooks and especially the latest netbooks just haven’t been built for the daily abuse they’ll get at a school. Failures of screens, hard drives and mechanical things like the case are the result, which adds to the cost of outfitting students and teachers with notebooks. EarthWalk’s eBuddy 14RY is a good alternative with a shock-mounted screen and hard drive as well as magnesium case, reinforced hinges and rubberized corner bumpers. The 6-pound system is built around an Intel Celeron, Core Duo and Core 2 Duo processer, 14-inch screen and up to a 320GB hard drive.
