Would someone tell me why this computer costs so much?

Dolch sells "industrial" computers. These computers are supposed to be "hardened" enabling it to be used is dangerous/ possibly damaging environments.

Though if it was up to me I would buy 15 or so Dells, and toss them when the were too damaged to repair.
