ABSTRACT:
An improved portable personal computer preferably configured to facilitate outdoor field-use has an impact attenuating case, a sealed keyboard, and a sealed mouse which facilitate use of the computer in harsh environments. The case has a impact attenuating covering in which is housed a hard drive on a shock-isolated mount and a display further mounted in die case in a resilient shock-isolated manner. The case, hard drive mount, and display mount cooperate to attenuate shock-induced damage resulting from impacts and sudden accelerations of the computer caused during rugged use. Furthermore, the sealed keyboard and mouse assemblies prevent any damage which might result from liquids migrating within the case and into the computer components.
