Rumour has it that a Panasonic CF-32 is coming out in the next 12 months.

• Lighter
• Thinner
• And finally... better screen resolution than 1024x768...

Not that I have heard of.

CF-20 - GOOD
FZ-F1/N1 - GOOD
CF-54 already out.

I haven't heard anything else of a CF-32

No, this is the good old slugger with 15 years of docking compatibility....

Grrrrr, I finally get a current model number Toughbook and Noooooooo, those fiendish bastard Engineers at Panasonic hurry up and come out with the newer, better, lighter, blaa, blaa, blaa, CF-32!!!

It's not right I tell you!

If it's too thin and light just remember you can bash it with your 31 and it will still work.

I threatened to do just that one time to a fellow with an Alienware PC that was asking me "what was so great about my CF-29." He had just come up to me in a Waffle House where I had settled to work on a report and started talking to me about my laptop and then putting it down.

I asked him to lay his computer on the table in front of me, by mine, and I would show him. Only when he watched me close the lid on my old CF-29 and raise it over my head in both hands did he grasp what I was about to do...

I did that on the insistence of a drunken patron at a pub, once. He just wouldn't let it go until I dropped it on the floor in front of him to prove the CF-19's ruggedness. I think I ended up damaging the wooden floor too.

LMAO, I KNOW my Alienware wouldn't survive that. Well screen wise. The M11x chassis is ok, I have had them survive a few drops but the top half would be gone, lol.

Comparing an Alienware to a Toughbook, is like debating which the superior vehicle, a Chevy Corvette Z06, or a Ford F-150 Pickup. The real question, is the job.

Yep, That's why I have both.
