Reviews for the Panasonic Toughbook CF-S10
Source: PC Mag Archive.org version
The Panasonic Toughbook CF-S10 is a solid machine when it comes to handling day-to-day office tasks and it'll keep your data secure for years to come. However, if performance is your main concern over security, then you should definitely consider the Lenovo ThinkPad X220—$1,150 less than the Toughbook CF-S10—and combine it with something like a WiebeTech ToughTech Secure Q hard drive to back up your data. If performance and security are of equal concern, the Dell Latitude E6420-ATG will give you a faster Core i7 processor with the rugged business look, but it'll cost you $899 more.

Intel HD Graphics (Sandy Bridge): Processor graphics card which is integrated in the Sandy Bridge Pentium and Celeron processors. Similar to the desktop HD Graphics 2000 and not related to the old Arrandale processor graphics with the same name.
Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

This range of display format is largely the upper limit for tablets and the lower limit for subnotebooks.
The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small in size and therefore easily portable. The tiny display has the added advantage of requiring little power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is exhausting for the eyes. High resolutions, which one is used to from a standard laptop, are almost not usable.
The same applies to tablets in this size range.

70%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
