BCB expires on July 30, so we have to hope it goes up to 20% or more within the next month. I've still got 21 days left to return my MBP. I can configure a comparably equipped Envy 14 for over $500 less than what I paid for my MBP. That's before any BCB.
Not only did they raise the price by $100 but the 25% bing cash back went down to 5% so any hope of this laptop being at a reasonably good price compared to the hardware in it disappeared.
Heat and/or build quality issues are what make me hesitant to get an Envy. The first models had some serious problems. I hope we get some reviews of the 14 soon.I have been watching the Envy 14 for a long time and lately I have been leaning more and more to a MBP. After seeing the problems that the new Envy 17 with heat, construction, and customer support, I am sort of shying away from HP.
A comparable MBP 15 on macmall is $400 difference, but comes with a printer and parallels as well. This $400 difference was with a HP educational discount as well.
I'm looking forward to you getting your hands on it, too!I ordered one earlier today so I will see first hand what the quality will be like. Based on specs alone, the Envy 14 offered the best balance of price/performance. Now, we just have to see if the build quality stands up. As for the heat issue, was that not specifically limited to the quad core models? I had not seen too much negative feedback on the dual core versions.
The bump in price to use the 1600x900 screen as the standard makes sense and make have simply been a last minute change for quality or supply problems. Either way, I am looking forward to getting my hands on this laptop.
