The envy 14 looks awesome.

The fact that its more affordable helps too!

Heard anything more about Crossfire in the dv7?

Specifically if it's just a Hybrid Crossfire between the IGP and discrete GPU or is it a full on Crossfire set up with two discrete GPUs?

I have never really been a fan of HP (consumer) laptops, but these look pretty sweet on paper. I'll be curious to see how they turn out. The whole clean design thing feels like Macbook Pro ripoff though. I do wish they had reconsider the super glossy screens while they were at it too.

The starting price is a little too high if you ask me and the 14.5" 1600x900 resolution, yuck. Too bad you can tilt the screens and convert them to portrait mode.

I'm not a fan of Apple but if I wanted something that looks like a MBP i'd buy the real thing for a couple of hundred bucks more.

What about a new dv8?
Does anybody know something about it?

It would be a shame if they decided to discontinue this model.

Also agreed ... I am looking forward to NBR doing a review on one of the laptops with the amd chips....
