HP has introduced their new sexy (borrowing from the MacBook Pro) 13" and 15" laptops and the tech sites are drooling all over themselves.
While they look nice, I don't quite understand the price tags. Apple is always bashed for being too expensive, but when a company like HP tries to match 'em their prices are even higher (but no corresponding complaints on their prices). The HP Envy 13 is supposed to sell for $1699 (the 13" MacBook Pro is starts at $1199 and gives you the option of running OS X and Windows). The HP Envy 15 is supposed to sell for $1699 (the 15" MacBook Pro starts at $1699 and runs both operating systems).
