Ater years of using HPs (and Compaqs before that) I switched to Vaio because they had a convenient screen size, I loved the Vaio experience. However, because they no longer make the 16.4" laptop I went back to HP, their 17" option seemed to solve my problem and I had heard good things about the Envy line.
To my disappointment and concern, as I will have to purchase something else, this computer is miserable to use. The keypad is slower than the Vaio and the mouse-pad is a nightmare, I have disabled most features and still it does whatever it wants, paints the screen blue for no reason, when I try to right click on a word to change spelling it brings up a menu strip and I have to repeat the operation, when I point and click something, half the time nothing happens until I try two or three times, a real nightmare.
I have no doubt that the computer is a good computer as computing goes, but as for easy of use, it is terrible! The problems I have described make me much slower, and the type of work I do depends on speed and output. I actually compared it by doing the same assignment on the new HP and on the old Vaio.
Yes, I can buy a mouse but I work on the road, and a mouse in my case is not really practical.
I regret having gone back to HP.
