    Guys what's the difference between the two?

    I really like the look of both (pretty similar to me) but i like to have 13' and as thin as possible with optical drive and seems like Pro line has the 13' but does it only available in the reddish brown color? does it come in brush black finish?

    Im in the market of getting two notebooks :) 16' for my bro and myself 13' no smaller/bigger than 13' and both with optical drive (must) and ofcoz thin! ;) could you guys recommend some (dont care about brand)
    16' must under 1500$ haha and 13' no problem cuz that's mine :D (i already have the Sony Z so no more Z i want a different brand than Sony for my 13')
    Uhm no net book for me and im not a gamer so dont really care about the graphic card

    Thanks,
    Drew

    i dont think probook is thin. i had probook 6440b and it felt rather bulky for a 14" laptop.

    I think the Probook 5310 is a good pick.

    What is the difference? Elitebooks are their top tier laptop. Probooks are more mainstream, and Compaq are their budget line.
