I especially liked your quick comparison with its older sibling the hp 8710w, just wish you could have expanded a bit more on that aspect. As a matter of fact as I write these lines it turns out both models are available concurrently on the market at this time, and with the older model selling for a good $1000 less, one could practically get two for the price of the newer model, which would make it a great deal, provided the performance drop between old and new wasn't too dramatic. In other words, it would have been nice to get more comparisons between the two, especially screen wise (LED vs backlit LCD) and performance wise. If anything, one gets the impression from reading your review that the differences are not very large - would you say that is a correct assessment? In any case, it was a great review as for "feel" and that was much appreciated :) Very nice review that gives a good impression on what it is to use one of these machines.
