Twinhead D14RI-TK Durabook Tested and Destroyed

ccasionally [H] Consumer has the opportunity to get “previews” or “first looks” at products that are fresh and hot on the market. This oftentimes does not give us an opportunity to evaluate the full customer experience, but we think there is significant value in showing you just what’s up with a new or unique product on the market. So instead of rating these products as we normally do, we try to give you an inside look at the product, and we hope that we can follow up with retail products in the future.

We’ll play a couple of our games on the Durabook, but mostly we’re interested to see how it performs in general usage and durability. We don’t normally do this in the course of an evaluation, but (with Twinhead’s blessing) we’re going to perform some possibly destructive testing on it. Twinhead makes some rather bold claims regarding what the Durabook can withstand, and we’re downright giddy to test these claims for ourselves.
