Laptop manufacturers don't typically include 'maximum operating G' information. Looks like there's a freefall phase during the flight, though, during which a laptop with a physical hard drive would likely enter freefall protection mode. So you'll at least want to use an SSD.

I'd be totally satisfied just looking out the window... even on my 20th flight I doubt it'd be boring. A built-in tablet that turns on automatically in each seat might solve this problem. But then someone will have to offer wireless internet in space.
