Panasonic Toughbook Laptop? Need advice in purchsing a used one...?
I would like to purchase a used panasonic toughbook laptop, basically,what used models should I be looking for that are reliable and fast? Looking to spend no more than $350.00 ( looked on ebay -large selection) Will be using the computer for mainly wireless internet and microsoft word....
What is the minimum Processor Speed,Memory (RAM),Processor Type,Hard Drive Capacity, and Operating System should i be buying ??
Toughbooks are overpriced because of their 'ruggedized' casing - so you won't get as much computer as with another brand. Of course, since you are shopping specifically for a toughbook, presumably you have need for that.
Basically, just get the most your budget can handle. If you want to maximize your performace on an older machine, I suggest forgoing Windows and installing a user friendly Linux like Ubuntu - it comes with Openoffice, which is virtually identical to MSWord (and is 100% compatible with your MSWord files). Wireless internet usually works out of the box and takes some minimal configuring if it doesn't (Similar with windows, except in windows it's a pain to get it working if it doesn't automatically...). Best of all, Ubuntu us free and has free updates for life.
Anyway, I would suggest a processor no slower than 800 Mhz and not less than 256 MB or RAM as my 'bare minimum' specs when shopping for a machine. RAM is more important than CPU speed, although it can usually be upgraded relatively cheaply after the fact. Hard drives are easy to replace as well, so if you find one that's perfect except it has a 10GB hard drive, don't discount it.
