    Go to sleep, it's past your bedtime children.

    Also, I see two people in this thread who have/had Vaio Zs according to their sigs but are waiting for the Envy 14? Why? If I could actually bring myself to spend that much on a laptop, I would choose the Vaio Z over the Envy 14 in a heartbeat.

    I had a vaio z but for 2k I expect a machine that doesn't buzz at idle, heat up to 90c+, or have a lower clocked 330m...


    Besides, all I really cared about in this thread was the turtle, and that turned out to be the biggest let down of the last 3 weeks... :'(

    Just a thought: wouldn't it suck if the Envy 15 gets refreshed with a BD player, back-lit keyboard, improved cooling and design and with the 5850 in all of three months?

    I have the Z still and yes the buzz is quite annoying and I definitely like the intel ssd vs the fixed ssd found in the Vaio Z series. I'm looking to see if the e14 can replace the Z and make it my mainstream laptop.

    The BD drive would make it even heavier. The one factor that would still drive me to the 14 is edge-to-edge glass. Tack on the BD drive and the E2E glass, and you get a 6+ pound Envy 15.

    If I search "HP Envy 14," I can turn up a page that has a "Buy Now" link (it was formerly "Call to pre-order," but it links me to a default laptop select page upon clicking it.

    This page is the one I'm talking about.
