A Laptop Designed to Take a Licking and Keep on Ticking
By JOHN BIGGS
“All terrain” is not usually a designation associated with
things as delicate as hard drives and high-speed memory chips.
Dell, however, is betting that its Latitude ATG D620 − the ATG
stands for All-Terrain Grade − can change that.
The ATG D620, which Dell says is designed to military
specifications, includes a spill-resistant keyboard, heavy-duty
case and 14-inch screen, which is visible in direct sunlight. It
weighs about 6 pounds with the optical disk drive and battery
installed, and is about 2 inches thick.
The laptop comes in a metal-and-black finish with
protective coverings on its serial, video out, modem, Ethernet
and four U.S.B. ports.
Inside the hard shell is an Intel Core 2 Duo processor,
running at up to 2 gigahertz, and up to 4 gigabytes of memory.
The least expensive model ($2,499) runs at 1.6 gigahertz and
includes an 80-gigabyte drive and 512 megabytes of memory.
Dell includes a fingerprint scanner for security, while
military and other security-conscious users can enable the
laptop’s built-in Smart Card reader and other data encryption
technology.
...... it won’t survive a dunk in the deep, the ATG D620
can survive a splash of mud or a good, hard drop.
