The HP 17 1190 is worth its weight in gold.
I needed a laptop was powerful, stable and had a good screen; the HP 17-1190 delivers on all these things. The Good -- - Incredibly powerful, having Photoshop, Google Chrome, Itunes and Skype open at the same time makes no dent in the performance. - The quality of the screen and graphics is superb.

Review HP Envy 17-1190eg Notebook
The HP Envy 17 is an impressive piece of technology. Design and workmanship are almost beyond any doubt. The utilized materials have been processed cleanly and fit well into the image of a premium multimedia notebook . The good keyboard also fits into the picture.
