I have two HPs, an Envy Spectre 14 and a Split X2. Both work flawlessly; the Spectre gets a ton of attention amongst my colleagues when I bring it out for its Gorilla glass body, palm rest and screen (owned for a year and a half now and still going strong; got even faster and more stable with Win8.1), and the other was bought for under $500 for my gf to use as a tablet/laptop hybrid for her design work. I can't comment on the Envy 17, but my point is HP laptops have gotten much better than they used to be and are getting a bit of an unjustifiably bad rap on this thread. It isn't fair to trash a model just because HP "supposedly" has some maligned laptop reputation when in recent years it really hasn't.
