The computer was made by General Dynamics and used by the military for a while its about a decade old tech wise. The model is the MR1. 1ghz 1 gig ram IIRC which is enough to run most ham programs. My model has GPS built in so great for in the field time sync for FT8/jt65. Its quite rugged and ideal for field ops guven that it was purpose built just for that. My only regret is that they stopped making them sometime back so no updated procs/ram or spare parts.
