I absolutely love this laptop. I went to HP's site and configured one just like this, or at least as close as I could get and would have paid a lot more for it. I had an older HP (dv6z-1100) and it was just time for an upgrade considering my major, which requires more heavy software. I was not looking forward to installing everything all over again... the 8GB RAM made all of my installs take place in a matter of 20 minutes... (Adobe Master Collection, Microsoft Office Pro and a few Autodesk products as well as the standard printers, tablets, cameras, etc.) I love it, and the fingerprint reader is very convenient as well. I am still dabbling with the 32GB mSSD but the 1TB drive makes you not really notice. The 17.3-inch diagonal Full HD Anti-glare LED-backlit Display (1920 x 1080) is just fabulous. Even YouTube looks a lot better. It's taking some time to get used to the keyboard, island keyboard I believe, but that's because my other laptop's screen was smaller, so that means less space for keys. All in all I love this computer. Will from Eluktronics was awesome, before and after I bought the laptop. Very helpful and prompt to reply. I will definitely buy from them again!!

1) blisteringly fast system overall - even with a conventional hard drive because of the motherboard SSD cache. With full SSD (Crucial M4 265 GB in one system, Samsung 830 in the other) boots to welcome screen in under 8 sec - full desktop only another 4 seconds away. With just mSSD and no full SSD(32 GB cache for conventional hard drive) still boots in under 18 seconds.2) superb screen - antiglare really makes a difference, with the upgraded 1080P display. Very accurate and bright color with great viewing angles. Poor man's Retina display for half the money? Intel's terrific screen utility allows for adjusting color, gamma and virtually all display parameters to get very accurate color, tone, saturation, gamma, etc.3) excellent sound system (in combination with the great display - best blu-ray experience on any computer (rivaling big plasma TV)4) backlit keyboard (finally!) with decent feel (but see cons!) with full number keypad (can't get that in smaller laptops).5) very decent battery life, especially for big laptop because of (switchable) motherboard graphics - runs very cool on motherboard graphics esp. compared to old Envy 17s with power-hogging dedicated video cards.6) solid video game performance - there are probably better video cards but upgraded Nvidia 650M GT offers very good performance for the money.7) my one experience with HP service was surprisingly positive - got a technically very sophisticated person who helped solve the problem quickly.8) Relatively light for its size - under 7 lbs.9) Second drive bay allows for either huge total storage or drive redundancy (I have extra OS partition which has been life saver after hard drive corrupted by rogue program behavior and blue screen. Can't get that in smaller package10) Loved the first one so much that I bought a second one for another office, and just cloned the whole system - had a fully set up system after just 30 minutes of drive copying (identical hardware so all the drivers and software from one system carried over to the other without a hitch). Second one works as well as the first.Cons:1) internal microphone is distinctly poor quality - only piece of hardware on the system that is not really first rate - makes speech recognition programs unusable without an external microphone - I wonder if someone left a piece of tape over it - no treble sensitivity at all.2) HP service is getting better, but still has a ways to go at least according to recent reviews3) Windows 7 still is not the most reliable operating system particularly when compared to the Mac OS X but it is nice to look at, and much easier to customize.4) Trackpad is about the jumpiest around - must turn it off to do much typing as even brushing against it lightly will cause cursor to go crazy and start selecting and deleting text all over the page. Enabling palm check function in touchpad driver doesn't solve this problem.This is the fastest system I've ever used. With the new Ivy Bridge chipset, a Crucial M4 SSD (highly recommended) can load large files at over 500MB second, and it boots into the desktop in an honest 10 seconds. This makes it really painless to shut the system down instead of having it go into hibernate or suspend. Indeed the boot time is far less from a cold boot that it is from hibernate. They have also significantly improved the sound system (relative to my previous Envy 17 which itself was pretty decent). Superb playback of Blu-rays, and unlike some previous systems, I have yet to find a Blu-ray that won't run on the included software. Even with a subpar internal microphone, I would say this is the finest and most complete laptop I've ever used - and that includes the new MacBook Pros which are more than twice as expensive (and good luck trying to get blu-rays to play on Macs unless they are running BootCamp and Windows).Great job HP!ADDENDUM JULY 2012:System is just a joy and a delight to work with. Continues to speed along without any real problems. Updated a bunch of drivers through HP Assistant. Best electronics purchase in a long time.SEPT 2012 UPDATE:Still having problems with a jumpy trackpad that moves the cursor all over the place - just disable the TP when trying to do much typing. Also, I had first serious problem (hard drive failure due to some kind of malignant program interaction between Flash, Office and Dragon Naturally Speaking). Don't blame HP for this. Fortunately, the second drive bay allows me to back up the system partition regularly to another drive (the original 1 TB mechanical hard drive) and this saved me. Would recommend other users do the same, as system restore won't work if you have a hard drive failure and trashed system files (see my negative review of Naturally Speaking 11 and 12 - they are probably the culprit, or at least in the mix with some other misbehaving programs). Still believe that in terms of basic hardware, this is the best large screen laptop out there, including the MBP 17. HP's service looking better and better. They appear to have really made a major effort to clean up their act. Highly, highly recommended.OCT 2012 UPDATERecommend users get DriverMax for driver updates - great freebee that beats HP's system, which is better than many, but still not adequate. Superb system, best computer I have ever owned, even with the jumpy trackpad and lousy internal microphone. Screen quality, speed, keyboard, all first-rate. Some blu-rays more enjoyable on this than on big living room plasma. Updated Intel MB graphics drivers allow customizing of gamma, color saturation, hue, so that you can get screen to be very accurate for color in terms of photos and videos. Love the anti-glare coating on the screen also - couldn't go back to stock screen. Best computer purchase ever. Will buy a second one for upstairs office before being forced to go Win 8. Not everyone wants a tablet interface and operating system. They really (finally) have the drivers for this running nicely - almost no blue screens (outside of Dragon Dictation). Runs like a top. Not just the best computer system I have ever used (have owned several dozen), the best one by a HUGE margin. Buy one before you can't get Win 7 anymore.
