The HP Envy 15 Beats Edition is noice. Look at that beast. You have to respect the matte black on black styling. Apple fanboys can’t say anything about this edition of the HP Envy looking like their MBPs. The Beats Edition looks better. Too bad it suffers from all the downfalls found in the Envy series and carries a $500 premium. At least it comes with the Beats headphones.
Exact specifications aren’t listed just yet, but it’s likely that HP will pack this special edition with the same Core i7, Mobility Radeon HD 4830 system found in the standard Envy 15. This model has the same October 22nd shipping date, but will carry a $2,299 price tag. Worth the extra coin? Hip-hop wannabes probably think so.

This is why we can’t have nice things. Because they keep charging more than what my cars worth! Yeesh, can’t we get a good looking, stylish notebook that doesn’t cost a billion kagillion dollars? lol
I find a great app!

No optical drive, same price as my (fully, truly awesome) MacBook Pro 15 inch? What is the point?
Who uses optical drives anymore these days? If you REALLY need one, you’re basically a minority. Just go out and buy a portable one. I mean really, how often are you going to use it anyways?
Because it’s better in every other respect and by quite a significant margin?
Hewlett Packard did a fantastic job of making me a full Macintosh convert ;-)
@Peter Payne : Cause clearly the only thing that matters in a computer is that it has optical drive or not…
My point is… The graphic card is better, the processor is better, and thats only from what’s written in the small description right there…
It’s a beast indeed

Yawn… I may be a dinosaur, but um put me in on the list of those that need an optical drive… “Who needs an optical drive anyway?” ME! Especially when I am about to fork over a minimum of 2 grand!!! Nice machine, but I hate the trackpad (many others do too). HP, if you are trying to copy the Mac design (which you obviously are), this counts as a FAIL…
IT DOES HAVE AN OPTICAL DRIVE,BUT ITS EXTERNAL BUT DOES COME WITH IT! IF YOURE WONDERING YES ITS BETTER THAN A MACBOOK PRO. I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
