Ruggedized Mobile Computers
Some professionals work in environments that may require special
ruggedized features to protect their computers from extreme
temperature, humidity, and physical punishment.
Construction,
public service, distribution, repair service, and utilities are some of
the environmentally demanding professions that may require rugged
mobile computers that can withstand stresses.
For these
applications, IBM offers such computers (not ThinkPad systems),
especially designed for mobile professionals who need a system for
managing and communicating information from the field.
For more information on these computers, consult your IBM Business
Partner.
Ergonomics Information
This is important information you should read before using your
computer in your “virtual office.”
Working in the virtual office might mean adapting to frequent
changes in your environment.
Following some simple “rules of the
road” will make things easier and bring you the maximum benefits of
your computer.
Keeping in mind such basics as good lighting and
proper seating, for example, can go a long way in helping you
enhance your performance and achieve greater comfort wherever
you are.
Note:
The example shown here is of someone in a traditional setting.
Even when not in
such a setting, you can follow many of these tips.
Develop good habits, and they
will serve you well.
