While the use of the Apple laptops in the field is an interesting idea, I think the military might be more taken with the high security communications available via Globalstar, a satellite based wireless system that provides a dial tone virtually anywhere on earth. Globalstar stock isn't much, but the two companies with substantial holdings are Loral and QUALCOMM.

"I doubt the military will be issuing large contracts for laptops to carry onto the battle field. Although they might!"

Only if they make a laptop that's tougher than the ones I've used! Thanks for the info Herb.
