Hey all. I'm in the market for a new 14" laptop and I'm looking for suggestions. Looking for a 14" because of the balance between power and portability. That and my wife has a 13.3" and I want something slightly larger. I'll likely use it for couch surfing and travel. Plus some moderate gaming, like Starcraft 2 and WoW.
So far my front runners are the HP Envy 14 and Dell XPS 14, but I'm not really in love with either of them. I'd rather not spend much more than $1,500.00, but I'm open to great suggestions above my budget. I'd briefly considered the 2010 Macbooks, but they seem a little outdated now and I'm looking to buy in the next week or so, which rules out the next revision in the spring.
Also, minirant, why are there so few consumer grade 14" laptops with resolutions higher than 1366x768? I'd jump at a Thinkpad 410 in a second if not for the business class gfx card.
Anyway, I'm looking for any and all suggestions you guys would offer. Thanks in advance!
