Been intermittently banging on my old Panasonic CF-29 Toughbook. Upgrade worked great, however I lost touchscreen capability. It seems that Ubuntu dropped xserver-xorg-input-evtouch and hal. I installed hal from a ppa, got the source code for the xserver and once I fix a fuse bug that won't let that single computer mount an xfat drive, I'll compile it. It's nice to have a computer to travel around with that one can also hammer nails with. I never had a hard drive crap out from shock in a Touchbook, I can't say the same about my MacBook Pro.
