Why aren't all laptops manufactured out of metal (steel, aluminium), like the Apple Macbook Pro?My father recently purchased an Apple Macbook ProVery impressive notebook computerBut what really caught my attention is the fact that it's made from a single block of genuine aluminiumThus I just wondered why aren't most electronic devices and consumer electronic products and their external shells made out of metal? Surely then it will be near-indestructible.And another flaw I noticed in many mobile phones is that the LCD screen is positioned too close to the actual plastic screen surrounding itTo see what I mean, look at a Samsung D600, and look at the screen from an angle, and you'll notice there's a fairly large gap between the plastic screen and the actual LCD insideThis is goodBecause without the gap, you can drop the phone and the LCD will crack easilyMany laptops have this same design flaw.
i think what you are talking about is the Instyler
It sounds like the Instyler to me as well, but I recommend a FHI ironIt is a great iron with a 5 year warranty vs the normal 1 yrRetails for about 120.00
Don't equate damage potential from shock with the external carcass of the PCIn fact, one solid chunk of metallic material may transmit the shock better than a built up, multiple layer plastic frameIn those instances you'd rather the plastic failed while dissipating the shock energy than the LCD or other electronic componentsAlso, it depends on how the boards are shock mounted within the caseYes, the outside case would be indestructible but you may then leave the internal components to bear the brunt of the shockSimilarly, automobile design has changed from making the car indestructible to making the car energy absorbing and dissipating so that the occupants then don't bear the majority of the damageIt makes for some expensive repairs but in the balnace more lives are potentially saved.
