Panasonic Toughbooks are preferred by Caterpillar Heavy Duty Diesel Mechanics because they are rugged & designed to take a beating in the most brutal environments suck as the scorching heat, sub-zero winter temperatures and even in the heavy rain.
The screen is Sunlight readable. Most laptop screens will washout in very direct bright light. It is also a Touchscreen so you can using your finger or a stylus pen to manage your ET SIS 2020 software.
The touchpad is also pressure sensitive so even if your fingers are dirty or greasy it will still work precisely, unlike consumer laptops that work based on an electrical charge. You could even be wearing gloves and it would still work... Try that on a "Made in China" consumer laptop.
The outside of Toughbook is a tough Magnesium Allow making it 20x stronger than cheap plastics used in typical consumer laptops like Dell, Lenovo, etc. You can drop this from a 6' height and it would still work fine! Go on YouTube and search: Toughbook + Abuse and you will see for yourself.
If you work on Heavy Duty deisel equipment like ET SIS with 538-5051 (Replaces 466-6258 & 317-7484) adapter or Volvo equipment with PTT software, than there is no better laptop than the CF-31 Panasonic Toughbook. These are used by police and military because of their reliability and toughness.

Reviews
Every Caterpillar Heavy duty mechanic should have one of these diagnostic tools for CAT equipment. My Toughbook came loaded with CAT ET 2023 and the CAT 3 USB adapter. The Toughbook CF-31 is built like a tank and can handle extreme abuse. It was refurbished and I would say about 9/10 condition. The CAT adapter was brand new. It came ready to work out of the box and I am very pleased with my purchase. The only downside was the cost of shipping to Australia at $175, but overall still a great value...
