What do you mean by "do it all" exactly? If you are talking about a laptop that isn't slow, even when using multiple programs and such, I would suggest a gaming laptop. They're incredibly fast, have better graphics, usually more memory right out of the box than the slower regular "office" style computers. But this is my personal opinion really. I have never even tried playing games on this laptop I have. I love that when I click to open a file, any file on my laptop, do something online, its click and boom, its up.

Ahh, well in that case, all I ever seen at independent shops that use that is a regular laptop with the software on it. There is always some dongle or something they have connected to a port on the laptop to be able to connect it to the truck. I would still go gaming laptop, maybe higher end.

They really arent worth it. I have a standard gaming laptop and just downloaded insite to it, paid the fees and got a dongle. Those "rugged" laptops are mostly a scam or for use in extreme conditions.
