I can’t speak to the quality of the current crop of Apple laptops, but in the Windows world, Panasonic Toughbooks are in a class of their own, far exceeding the durability, build quality, reliability, support and servicing of any other vendor, including Lenovo.
I’ve heard they are rugged. Big and Ugly too, but there is plenty of room for ginormous battery(don’t know if they have one or not). If you had to go out and drive around Oil Wells, be a Cop, or a Game Warden, it would be tops.
