Questions about this item

Does the CF-53 MK1 ship with any accessories besides the AC adapter?

The box contains the semi-rugged laptop and its AC adapter only; no docking station, spare battery or stylus is included.

Should I choose the CF-53 MK1 over a model with a larger display for field work?

The 14.0 inch 1366 x 768 non-touch screen keeps weight down while meeting MIL-STD-810G drop and spill requirements.

What does the 2.5 GHz i5-2520M mean for everyday Windows 10 Pro performance?

Two cores with Turbo up to 3.20 GHz and 16 GB RAM handle office apps and browsing smoothly; Intel HD Graphics 3000 limits 3D workloads.
