    Hello, I want to buy a laptop.. I was trying to find something small but that has everything in. I liked the envy13.
    What do you have t say about this laptop? is it a good option?...
    Comparing this laptop vs the MacBookPro 13, wich has a full voltage processor and a built in dvd unit.. Is it a good option?
    What webpage should i go if a I want to buy this laptop? and what part do I really need to add??
    Any other thing you may say about this laptop, just write here.. I need opinions!!

    (I will run Autocad for 2D dwg viewing and small editings, Ms office suite, SAP2000, and surf the web..)

    thank you!

    Have you looked at other options like the envy 14 or the dm4t? If you don't need too much power there are plenty of options that would be less than an envy 13.

    Running Autocad? Don't get the Envy 13 or the MBP. Get the dm4t with i5 processor and dedicated graphics.

    ok, but as I said: Running Acad just for dwg view and small editing in 2D only. I was over a intel core2duo T7200 (2.0 ghz); 3gb ram, intel video card.. It was a Lenovo V200 very good machine, so I can go with a small machine!! Thats why im not seeing bigger than 13!
