“Rugged” laptops are laptop computers that have been constructed to operate under conditions that would destroy a “regular” laptop computer. For a laptop to be classified as a “rugged” it must be meet two criteria: it must be constructed to meet the rigorous MIL-STD-801G standards, as established by the US Department of Defense, that determine how equipment will react to conditions in the field and it has to have a high ingress protection rating which determines a device’s resistance to the intrusion of solid objects, dust, and water into its various components .

Panasonic is one of the leading manufacturers of “rugged” laptops. Their line of “Toughbook” laptops have set the standard for rugged laptop computers. These computers range in toughness from “business rugged” laptops that are built to withstand everyday bangs, bumps and spills, to those rated as “fully-rugged” and can survive drops of up to six feet, rain, oil, pressure, vibration, dust, and extreme variations in temperature and humidity.

How tough are they? Take a look at these Toughbook torture videos:

Toughbooks cost more than your average laptop. However, because of the superior materials and stringent quality control that goes into their construction, Toughbooks last longer and require fewer repairs than standard laptops, resulting in a lower cost of ownership.

Recently, Panasonic have added a line of rugged tablet computers to the family. Called the “ToughPad” it’s manufactured to the same standards of ruggedness as the Toughbooks.

APPLE NOTEBOOKS

People don’t associate Apple with laptop computers. The enormous popularity of the iPad and iPhone products tends to overshadow the fact that Apple also produces some great laptops:

Screen Tek has replacement screens for the MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, Powerbook, iBook and MacBook series of notebook computers as well as replacement digitizer screens for the iPad, iPad 2 and iPad 3.

Those prices listed are for BRAND NEW replacement LCD and digitizer screens. ScreenTek doesn’t sell used or knock off panels. Do we get them from Apple? No – because Apple doesn’t make the screens for their Macs and iPads. ScreenTek gets its screens from the same manufacturers that produce the screens installed in factory new Apple products. This means there’s absolutely no difference in quality between the screen you purchase from ScreenTek and the ones Apple installs in their products, except price. We buy in bulk and pass the savings on to our customers.

DIY LAPTOP AND DIGITIZER SCREEN REPAIRS

A lot of people don’t know that they can replace a laptop or tablet digitizer screen themselves. Replacing a screen yourself can save you a lot of time and money on screen repairs.

NOTE: The process for replacing an iPad screen, while similar to replacing an laptop screen, is a little more tricky. Why? It’s mainly because of the way tablets are put together. Literally. In a laptop computer, the screen and the computer are contained in two separate sections. With the iPad and other tablet computers, everything is sandwiched together between two panels.

The screen assembly of a laptop is held together by screws, while the two panels of the iPad are held together by glue. This is what makes the process of replacing an iPad digitizer screen more difficult that replacing a laptop LCD screen; to separate the two panels to get to the screen you have to first cut through this adhesive layer without damaging any of the iPad’s other components.

We offer replacement iPad, iPad 2 and iPad 3 digitizer screens as well.

ScreenTek has been providing replacement laptop screens to customers around the world since 2000. We’ve started offering iPad digitizer screens in 2012. Our success is due to our large inventories, low prices and great customer service. If you need a new screen for your laptop or tablet computer save yourself some time and money and contact ScreenTek.
