Portland, Oregon’s CTL™ Corporation showcased its new Clamshell 2go™ Classmate PC E10 netbook today at the Intel Developer’s Forum in San Francisco.

“CTL’s education customers have been telling us that they love our ruggedized 2go netbooks, but wanted a model with VGA out, a larger screen and bigger hard drive, keyboard and touchpad,” said Mike Mahanay, General Manager of Sales and Marketing at CTL. “We listened. The result is our new 2go Classmate PC E10.”
