Twinhead sounds like the nickname of a nefarious Bond villain, not the moniker of a quality manufacturer. The N15RI is the latest model in Twinhead's ruggedized line of Durabook notebooks. It features a magnesium alloy chassis, and a 2.13 GHz Centrino processor.

Twinheadsounds like the nickname of a sinister Bond villain, not themoniker of a premier manufacturer of laptop computers. But makeno mistake - Based in Silicon Valley, California, Twinheadcorporation are not a fly by night operation. They've beentrading in the United States since 1988, and their globaloperation boasts offices in China, Germany and Great Britain.

Now Twinhead have announced the release of the N15RI, the newestmachine in their rugged line of Durabook laptops. LikePanasonic's flagship ToughbookElite, the Durabook N15RI has an eye catching magnesium alloyshell, that Twinhead state is twenty times tougher than thetraditional plastic cases found on ordinary notebooks.

The Durabook N15RI has a range of features to safeguardperformance. Anti shock mounting protects the 15.1 TFT screen andhard drive from damage and data loss. The keyboard is spillresistant, and Twinhead's patented lock offers the DurabookN15RI's optical drive and disks extra protection from knocks anddrops. The N15RI is powered by an Intel Pentium M Dothan 2.13 GHzprocessor, suggesting that this laptop offers performance as wellas durability.

Traditionally ruggedized laptops are the bread and butter of lawenforcement officers, soldiers, hospital workers, andfirefighters - Folks who need a computer able to operate underthe harshest of conditions. Such individuals rely on ruggednotebooks to gain access to critical information in the mostextreme enviroments. If Dirty Harry was around today, he'd find arugged notebook as useful as a .44 magnum for catching criminalsin the 21st century.

Battery life is excellent, 3 and a half hours under normalconditions, an optional Li-lon 9-cell Smart Battery Packincreases the N15RI Durabook's operating time to 5 hours.
