Hooray! My Envy 17 finally arrived!
I'll update with a post after I get a chance to play with it a bit on my lunch break, but here are some of my initial impressions.
Let me know if anyone has any specific questions about it and I'll see if I can answer them.
I'll update with a post after I get a chance to play with it a bit on my lunch break, but here are some of my initial impressions.
- It's huge. I've never had a 17" laptop, this dwarfs what I was expecting.
- It's surprisingly light for its size. Likely because the bottom half of the machine is plastic, and it only comes with a 6-cell battery.
- It seems very solid. The finish on the metal is nice and there's very little flex or sign of flimsiness that I've been able to notice so far.
- The touch pad is very large. Larger than the one on my wife's MBP I think. Unlike the MBP, the top corners don't depress though, just the bottom 2/3rds or so.
