You need a PC for engineering school. No need to check specs.

Should i get a macbook pro 13 or hp envy 14?

im entering college as a freshman in the fall and im in need of a laptop. ive heard great things about macbooks and hps, but im conflicted! I've been a windows user all my life, so I'm a little worried about how hard (or not) it would be to get used to the mac. I'm planning to use the laptop just for homework, internet browsing, watch some movies, and listening to music...no gaming or anything. My sister has an hp and she says the battery isn't great, i want something where the battery can last a whole day without charging or plugging in (6-7 hrs maybe)

any feedback is appreciated! thanks!!!Should i get a macbook pro 13 or hp envy 14?
Neither of those last that long for the battery charge. Both are pretty powerful computers and you should expect no more than a couple hours on a max charge. For your needs (apart from battery life), either will work fine. Only netbooks last for a long time (typically 8-12 hours).
MacBook Pro. It'll last you longer (HP laptops are plastic pieces of ****), OS X isn't hard to learn, Apple laptops' batteries tend to be excellent, and you can always install Windows on the MBP if you really need it.Should i get a macbook pro 13 or hp envy 14?
I KNOW THERE BOTH GREAT AND LOOK THE SAME!!!!

I would get the apple macbook because its better at everything and worth it. The hp envy is too pricey and its value is not great.

Between the M14X, Macbook Pro 15, XPS 14z and Envy 14, which one should I go for?

My subjects in university focuses more towards typing, so a good keyboard is needed. I want a decent 3 hour battery life when surfing at full brightness. I'd rather not use peripherals, so a good speaker and touchpad is preferred. During my spare time, I'll be doing some 3D visual editing and also create intensive game mods. For games, I'll be playing Source games mostly. I'll be watching videos and make some light picture editing, so a decent TN panel is the minimum. I prefer Nvidia's Optimus as it's less of a hassle, unless AMD releases BACON to make it a tie. I'll be using mainly Windows 7, so how does the Macbook Pro fare to the competition under Boot Camp? Also, I need a strong and reliable wireless connection. Oh, and a 256 GB storage is the minimum.Between the M14X, Macbook Pro 15, XPS 14z and Envy 14, which one should I go for?
If you mainly use Microsoft Windows, purchasing a Mac is a waste of money. Mac OS X, the operating system of every Mac, is designed especially for the Mac. Using Microsoft Windows as a primary operating system on a Mac makes the price you have paid for your Mac a waste of money. Either use Mac OS X and occasionally use Microsoft Windows, or purchase a normal laptop and run Microsoft Windows as your primary operating system. As for which normal laptop to purchase, simply compare the specifications and choose that laptop which matches with your needs.

Which laptop to get: Macbook air, hp envy 14 or hp pavillion dv7t? which to get?

so i love music. so i want a laptop that can function properly. everyone i know who has a pc, are unsatisfied. their laptops freeze and i cant say my previous laptops didnt have that problem, i hear macs are good though. Its a plus that mac has itunes, but a minus that it has no cd drive which i need. plus for hp is that it has beats, and im a music lover and i need, and has a cd drive. also, if anyone thinks that the hp pavillion dv7t is better than both, let me know why. please dont recomend others. and im not looking pricewiseWhich laptop to get: Macbook air, hp envy 14 or hp pavillion dv7t? which to get?
Macs can be better at times, there less prone to viruses, all Mac books have cd/dvd drives except for the Mac book air. Macs do get expensive they start at about a thousand for some what low specs 13.3 inch screen (2Gb of Ram) It also has a very small amount of storage for someone who loces music being only 64GB

You can also buy an external cd/dvd drive for the macbook air that connects through USB. One plus to getting a mac is the battery life on a mac book you can get up to 8-9 on a single charge.

The HP Envy 14 is a good option having a intel i3 Dual Core, 14.5 inch screen, 4gb of ram, 1gb ati dedicated video ram, CD/DVD drive. Base Price ($999.99)

The HP Pavillion Dv7t this is a bit cheaper then the envy 14 by 50 bucks, it has and 17 inch screen, an intel i5 Dual Core Processor, 4Gb of ram, 512 Ati Graphics.

The HP Pavillion Dv7t is overall the best pc option, it has an 17inch screen, a bit faster processor then both of the other options, Bigger Hard Drive, the only draw back is less graphics memory, (but is fine if your not planning on doing very much gaming its fine for just listening to music.

What i would recommend you do is custom order the HP Pavillion Dv7t from HP.com, that way you can customize it the way you want it. You can pretty much upgrade anything you want. When you custom order the Dv7t you also get a free upgrade to 6GB of ram and a 640GB hard drive. ( Better Then You Would Find In a Store).

All in all its your decision, For some one without a budget a mac is the way to go, for about $1600 you can get a 13" Mac Book Air that's less powerful then the base HP Dv7t at $950.Which laptop to get: Macbook air, hp envy 14 or hp pavillion dv7t? which to get?
I would most definitely go with the Macbook Air.

The quality on Mac's is great. You can get a cd drive for the Macbook Air from Apple. Its relatively small and it connects via usb to your macbook air. The Macbook Air also has no hard drive, but instead has a solid state drive. It works pretty much the same except their are no moving parts so there is less risk of something happening since it uses flash memory. The only drawback to flash memory is that it has been discovered that over time the performance of flash memory can actually decrease through use. However, it is still faster than normal memory and cannot be damaged nearly as easily by you dropping the laptop or anything like that.

As far as the HP computers go, I honestly can't recommend them. Unfortunately the reliability and quality of HP computers has decreased greatly in recent years and they have one the highest laptop hardware malfunction rates of any brand.

My overall advice would be to go with the mac. I think you will be way more satisfied in the future.

MacBook Pro 13" or HP Envy 14-1110nr 14.5" for college?

I'll be a sport and recreation management major so I don't have to worry about anything specifically too much.

I'll be using it to write papers, listen to music, go on the Internet, stuff like that. I already bought Microsoft office and will be using that.

A few things that are important to me: battery life and how long the computer will last in general. I've had too many laptops that have broken far too early.

***ALSO; since I'm starting school in fall of 2011 but buying the computer this Christmas, will I still be eligible for education discounts? And will prices probably go down for holiday specials etc?

Thanks so much!MacBook Pro 13" or HP Envy 14-1110nr 14.5" for college?

Don't know much about pricing for the HP but I don't believe you can get the student discount for the Mac if your not in college yet. But if you know someone that is in college already or even a teacher in grade school, you can get it.

Apple doesn't usually give out sale prices, but on "Cyber Monday" I believe they do. Also, if your looking to save money, you can get a refurbished one directly from Apple, exactly like a new Mac except its a few hundred bucks cheaper.

The 13" MacBook Pro can get 10 hours of battery life. Thats not just a number, its been proven by professional reviewers, its real time. The HP is a nice computer, but it doesnt hold a candle to the MacBook Pro.

Enjoy your new laptop :)

Which Laptop Spec to pick? (HP Envy 14)?

Which would be better?

Going from i3 core Processor to an i5-580m, but keeping the lower res screen (1366x768), or staying with the i3 core and getting the Radiance Screen (1600x900). I've used 1366x768 for years on my current laptop, and I'm completely fine with it... but I've heard the Radiance is nice. I know it would be instantly noticeable, but in what circumstances would I really need the higher res?

Not really a gamer, and I edit music.Which Laptop Spec to pick? (HP Envy 14)?
For music you will definitely need the i5 CPU. For editing music, you need a decent CPU/Processor as it does consumer quite a lot of power. As you are mostly doing audio editing and not gaming, the high-res screen is not needed. If you are doing video editing however, you need a good screen but you need a good CPU.

How much are you paying for this computer??? You may not be getting the best deal.

If you would like, I can help you find a good computer for your needs... just add more details to this post and I will edit my answer for more details.

But if you already know that this is the PC you want, go with the CPU. the i3 is gonna be sluggish...
