    OC, That "ancient wisdom" was not meant for you. Yes, accidents do happen. But this child has gone through MANY laptops, and I doubt his is part of any war, and that he prolly doesn't belong to the local EMS team. This is a school environment.

    I recall a TV show where the Panasonics were being tested (heat, cold, shock by being dropped), and the critics were just raving about them.

    Believe me, if I were the parents - the kid would be paying for his own laptop right after the first kill. This family is loaded, and hey - I get more work when he kills his laptop, so I'm keeping my trap shut.

    I like those toughbooks. I will definatly suggest those as his next replacement. If they can survive getting run over, they can survive this kid.... maybe...

    No worries dude, thought I'd just explain another of my random acts of stupidity.
