Writing and travel broaden your ass if not your mind and I like to write standing up.
Ernest Hemingway

Though a fan of Royal Typewriters, if alive today perhaps Hemingway would have endorsed this rugged computer:

Everyone knows travel and adventure writing from all over the globe can be tough on your equipment. That’s why I use RuffPC laptop computers. Their shock resistant capabilities protect nicely during rough jeep rides across African plains or while outrunning bulls on the streets of Spain. Glare is no longer a problem either, with the sunlight readable screen I find it easy to use whether fishing the seas off Cuba’s coast or skiing the bright winter snows of Sun Valley, Idaho. Let us not forget the spill-proof keyboard - wine, whiskey and gin all wipe right off and the keys are backlit for easy typing during those late night writing sessions.
RuffPC - masculine, practical & enduring - Just like my novels.

Have the inklings of a great writer in you? The Thinking Blog is giving away a free laptop, to enter just write about it and you may soon be toasting the successes of your latest adventure novel with your fellow bohemians in the sidewalk cafes of Paris.

Note: satire- no actual endorsement by Mr. Hemingway implied.
