Hummer Laptops!

Post by JustinVGT »

The Washington Post mentioned these Hummer laptops: http://www.hummerlaptops.com/ I wouldn't want the Hummer name on my laptop. They have some cool features like built in GPS, but they cost close to $5k loaded. I mean, if you had that and have a Hummer, do you really want to be advertising that you own a Hummer when you go to business meetings or where ever, especially with the gas prices these days? I think they are a little late for marketing these laptops. Probably would have been better when the H2 first came out a few years ago, not now.

If a Hummer just won't make you feel better about your (removed) size, now you can get a computer that will make you feel better about it.

The only thing about these laptops is that the battery life is really low! Ha, Ha!

how do the pictures of those people using a Hummer laptop ie. students and busness people EVER need a hummer laptop when 1. they arent getting shot at2. they arent out in the wilderness3. they arent getting SHOT at 4. there is no rough use usually there5. a good carrying case would be sufficient for their needspanasonic also makes a heavy duty one, we have one in the shop now thats from a police squad car, its damn tough.

And you can get them to match the color of your Hummer for color coordination!

lol! Glad I could be of service. I have many "words of the day." I share a few from time to time with you guys here. I wonder how many kilowatts per hour those HUMMER laptops consume?

It probably plugs into a 240v dryer outlet it's so rugged. Now if it was reallt rugged, they should avertise a Hummer running it over, that might convince me more. But for now, I'm sticking with my Alienware Laptop and my self-built Desktop. Although a Hummer desktop may be kinda cool...

I like the Panasonic Toughbooks better. I have one (a CF28) at my desk. The ruggedized tablet PCs are pretty cool too. Unfortunately I had to give that one back.
