Where Can You Buy Beats By Dre Limited Edition?

HP Envy 14 Beats Edition vs MacBook Pro 13"?

• I have the chance to get a new laptop but I couldn't choose between the Hp Envy 14 Beats Edition and the MacBook Pro. I like how the Envy has the slick, black design with the beats logo and audio. I am pretty serious about music sound quality and the Envy can give you this (I also do have Beats by Dre which I heard is to be amazing when connected with Beats Audio laptops).Yet I love how the Pro also has a slick yet more sturdy design than the PC. Also how it can give you iMovie, iPhoto, iBooks Author and Garageband (These softwares are really important to me). Garageband may not be the best music producing software, yet I do know that it is simple and easy to use. Also I can get the MacBook cheaper if I buy it from my school. The teachers will get me the international keyboard (English/Normal keyboard) and install Microsoft Word and the other apps for free. I also think I can upgrade the specs on the MacBook if I want to. The cost (I live in Europe) of a normal MacBook is about 1500 Euros, yet through the school, I can get it under 1000 Euros. The HP will be have to bought in the U.S. and brought by my relatives. The cost is about 1150 Dollars for the PC. Yet even though the cost is great for the Mac, I really really value the fact that the HP has Beats Audio. That is what is stopping me. Also everyone at my school has a MacBook and I have the thought that it would be cool to be different. It is hard to choose... Finally the technical details, HP Envy 14 Beats Edition: Operating system Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Processor 2nd generation Intel Core i5-2430M Processor 2.40GHz with Turbo Boost Technology up to 3.00GHz Processor speed 2.4GHz Memory 6GB DDR3 System Memory (2 DIMM); Max supported = 16GB Accessible memory slots 2 Display 14.5" diagonal High Definition HP BrightView Infinity LED-backlit Display (1366 x 768) Video graphics Radeon HD 6630 switchable graphics with 1024MB DDR3 and up to 4096MB total graphics memory Audio Beats Audio Primary CD/DVD drive Slot-Loading SuperMulti DVD burner Hard drive 830GB (80GB mSATA SSD + 750GB 7200RPM HDD) with HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection Networking Integrated 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet LAN (RJ-45 connector) Wireless options Wireless LAN 802.11a/g/n WLAN & Bluetooth with WiDi PC card slot Digital Media Card Reader for Secure Digital and Multimedia cards I/O ports 1 SuperSpeed USB 3.0 ; 2 Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 ; 1 mini-Display; 1 HDMI ; 1 RJ -45 (LAN) ; 1 Headphone-out/Microphone-in combo Finish Aluminum in black with soft-touch surfaces threaded throughout the body ; HP TrueVision HD Webcam with integrated microphone Software, security and support HP Support Assistant ; HP Power Manager ; HP Recovery Manager ; The NextBench ; HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection (HP 3D DriveGuard) ; HP CoolSense ; Adobe Reader X ; Adobe Flash Player ; Adobe Shockwave Player ; Microsoft Silverlight Software, productivity Microsoft Office Starter: Reduced-functionality Word & Excel w/ ads.

• Answer:

  go for the macbook pro. it is the first notebook to have 7 hours of battery life and it is powerful and strong. they ran more than 6 programms at the sametime with a fast speed. macbooks never get viruses as pcs. i used to be a pc lover but the viruses made me buy a new laptop everyday. the envy maybe good in audio but it will cost you alot in the future.
