I would like to build a SMALL rugged computer.
We are talking SMALL keyboard, screen (LCD/CRT), chassis and trying to do it somewhat economically.
This would be used in amateur astronomy out in the field.
I know one can always default to a laptop but they are not very conductive to upgrading when the time comes to do it.
What would you suggest?
Also, what is available in regards to solid state disks these days? A computer running at -20F is hard on the hard drives and LCD screens.
Has anyone tried to used a Diskless terminal like a WYSE Winterm as a basis for a cheap rugged PC?
Thanks
TMT
