Panasonic Toughbooks have superior build quality compared to Apple. I also love that mine has a hardware on/off wireless switch, plus a removable battery and hard drive and a 3 foot drop rating. Runs Arch like a dream.

And if you're willing to spend the big bucks, Panasonic offers some pretty rad premium options like 1000 Nit daylight readable display, built-in GPS and 4G wireless.

If you're on a budget, look for used models on Ebay that are being dumped for cheap after a corporate lease runs out.
