I've been waiting for Arrandale since last October but now I'm extremely tempted to get a refund from my i7 15inch and really opt for that 14.5inch HP.
SO much cheaper and better hardware?! They use IPS displays in these computers right?
its still a pc i don't even know why these threads keep popping up
Hi
Just seen that the new hp envy line of notebook have been annouced HP have done a good job copying the MBP line even more now with slot loading blurays and glowing logos on the back!
And they cramed in a radeon 5830 and 3g into them!
And the 14" is an i5!
Did apple drop the ball?

what's your point, you want an HP, get one. This is a Mac forum.
I often see the hardware other vendors pack into their notebooks and then wish Apple sold it too. The luxury is being able to buy something you want to buy and not what is just sold.Maybe because MBPs keep disappointing?
Are people not allowed to compare Apple products to other products anymore? Are you assuming that those who read this forum would NEVER look at any non-Apple computer?
this IS THE BEST POST in this thread. Solution?
Macbook Pro Elite series, with one or 2 comps in a division seperate than mbp, like dell and dell xps or now alienware. Still the same things from MBP but just offer bleeding edge tech and that apple tax price
Charge a 300-500 premium for base models over the corresponding MBP and offer better discrete graphics, better cpu's same apple quality. maybe a little less batt life
so I'm still hoping that a [real] updated MBP will come out by then.
