Review Getac B300


This durable laptop has the longest battery life of all the products on our lineup. One battery can last up to 11 hours, and there is an option to add a second battery which brings the total up to 22 hours. Even with long hours at work, the battery in your rugged laptop is sure to last as long as you need it to. The magnesium-alloy case is a great way to keep the waterproof laptop safe, even in the most rugged of environments. Caps and doors keep the I/O module protected from particles and moisture. One of the features we wanted but isn’t available is a camera. Having a camera with GPS tagging capability is a great feature for many different GIS applications.


The standard ports include two serial ports, an external VGA, an HDMI port, three USB ports, an IEEE port, and a docking connector for a vehicle dock. The vehicle dock is sold separately. The rugged laptop also comes with a security feature. Installed on every device is a fingerprint scanner which safeguards import data.
The operating system available for this rugged computer consists of either Windows Vista Business or Windows 7 Professional. Other software included on the rugged laptop is Getac Utility, Adobe Reader and Computrace Compatible BIOS. The utility software is an easy-to-use application which helps with system configuration and maintenance. From here you can control the connectivity, screen brightness, and battery consumption. Computrance Compatible BIOS is an application that allows you to track and secure your device, even if the computer is not running.
Customization: 
Rugged laptops are all about customization. This device comes with a plethora of options for making it fit exactly what you need. The rugged laptop comes with 250GB of memory; another 250GB can be added on top of that with a second HDD. The durable laptop also comes with a various configurations for the PCMCIA slots. You can have either multiple type II slots, a type II slot and an express card, or even a smart card reader that works with SD cards.
Not only is memory important in a computer, but so is connectivity. While the water resistant laptop comes with a 56K ITY V.92 modem and WLAN 802.11 a/b/g/n, it can also be hooked up with a GPS. This GPS can use an internal antenna, but for a stronger signal under a canopy, an external antenna can be plugged into the MMCX port. Another option available for the rugged laptop is 3G Gobi. Another useful customization option for this rugged computer is the ability to add a touchscreen. Many applications for rugged laptops require people to wear gloves. So instead of trying to press the small keys or use the small touchpad with a gloved finger, adding a touchscreen will enable you to use more finger-friendly software in the field without removing your gloves.
These examples are only a few of their customization options available for this Getac water resistant laptop. More options listed on their website include military connectors, additional I/O ports and Mil-Box. All of the expandability options can be discussed with the manufacturer at the time of placing the order.
Help & Support: 
Even the most rugged computer can occasionally malfunction because of a defect. Getac has the most extensive warranty available free of charge. Their five-year, bumper-to-bumper warranty is included with every rugged laptop purchased. This means they will fix your product if something malfunctions in the materials or workmanship under normal use. Most commercial laptops are only covered for a year, so having a rugged PC covered for that period of time is priceless.
We contacted Getac on several occasions and always received a quick response to our questions. Their staff is eager to help anyone who contacts them regarding their products. The support available online consisted of FAQs and an online Q&A. Having these options available means you can request and track a product repair without needing to call.

Summary:
The Getac B300 is a rugged laptop that covers all the bases and still is tough enough for any field use. With the connectivity options, memory and power expansion, this rugged laptop is the best choice.RAM Mounts RAM-234-GET2P RAM GETAC B300 LPTP MNT TOUGH TRAY PLAST
