Looking for Panasonic tough book used or refurbished...

[ellisjay2]

I favored the tough books since we used them at work for everything, the durability of the exterior, handle attachment that i have yet to see any other brand have, I was thinking to find one refurbished online maybe, it would just be for personal use mainly surfing web, school work,streaming would be nice, would it be hard to have most recent updated software, lates version of windows if i go the refurbished route? Is online the best option amazon or ebay perhaps or are there more sites? Im not an apple fan and most brands ive seen the laptops arent durable as i see on tough books...maybe lookin to spend $500 or more if its worth it, but if im missing some savings feel free to feedback.......or if theres something close to a tough book thats out now fill me in please......

I found some cf-31s and CF-30s on Amazon. Anywhere from $300 to $500.

Mine are company (government) issued. I liked the CF-31. It was dated when I turned it in. Windows 7, and sluggish with all the programs I was running. I have been using a CF-33 which also functions as a tablet running Windows 10. The CF-33 isn’t as rugged at the CF-31. The keyboard isn’t as good, keys will pop off and it needs to be sent in for repair. Mine is supposed to go in for some warranty work.

I like that I can use the tablet to take photos and will take it out of the cradle to do that.

I’d like to have one for personal use. I have gone a different route for my own use.
