I got the stock laptop with wifi card upgrade for $579.99 (pre-tax). Pros: Lightweight, and powerful processing for its class, *plenty of ports, above average keyboard, sleek white color (subjective), small power brick (less weight to carry around), Wi-fi has pretty good range and speeds. Average: Battery capacity and power consumption rate is average in my opinion. Reasonably sized screen bezels. Big Boss · hp.com
