Ok, so I have read up on both laptops, and up until I saw the envy there was no doubt i was getting a macbook pro (pretty much maxed out too, with 2.8 i7 processor, 4 gb of ram, better hard drive, hi res screen) which ran almost $2600...however I saw the HP Envy which is the only computer I have yet to see that even touches the macbook's design. The BEATS edition Envy is a nice computer as well, I would probably get the beats edition. I can get the envy, with 8gb of ram, top of the line i7 processor, and a few other things for around $1900. I am going into college, going to be doing mechanical engineering. I'm on the computer a lot, do a lot of multitasking, dont really play games much, but it would be nice to have something that can play a little game here or there. to be honest do I need 8gb of ram, top of the line i7 processor...no, but i seem to just want the top of the line product for college. The only thing I am worried about is windows vs the mac OS...macs can do some cool little things like negative screen mode and you can swipe the touchpad to bring all the windows up etc...anyways sorry for the long commentary, but what are your guys suggestions?? dont be afraid to give me recommendations on what some good specs are and whats pointless extras to buy.
KEEP IN MIND I already have a very nice desktop
