Group Mobile, well known for carrying the top brands in rugged laptops, rugged tablet PCs, rugged PDAs, and rugged handheld computers has added the newest semi-rugged Getac notebook computer to its product offerings — the Getac S400. Featuring Getac's ruggedized KryptoShell™ case, the new Getac S400 notebook meets or exceeds military standards (MIL-STD-810G) for temperature, shock, vibration, and drops from up to 2.5 feet. It has a 320GB shock-mounted hard disk drive and 2GB of DDR3 RAM, providing ample storage and memory. Mobile professionals will certainly appreciate the high performance and durability this notebook has to offer.

The Getac S400 pairs the Intel® Core™ i3-350M 2.26GHz processor with the Windows® 7 operating system for an incredible mobile computing experience. Getac also offers an option to upgrade to the Intel Core i5-520M 2.4GHz processor for even greater speed and performance when using processor-intensive applications. The S400 features a 14" sunlight-readable, widescreen display for easy viewing in any lighting condition, and is available with Getac's optional glove-friendly, multi-touch technology. Multi-touch display technology uses special software to recognize multiple, simultaneous touch points, allowing users to carry out operations via the touch panel display with simple gestures, or using more than one finger at a time.


The S400 semi-rugged notebook is well equipped with a water-resistant keyboard with an option to upgrade to a backlit keyboard; an integrated webcam; and a Super Multi DVD drive. Connectivity features of the S400 include 802.11a/b/g/n wireless LAN.
