This is a very nice workstation – using one now. Tho this model has an i5 instead of i7, it’s pretty speedy, has lots of room for expansion, and has an excellent screen.
The elitebook series has been a worthy successor to my long string of thinkpads, especially in terms of build quality, and the palatial keyboard+pad+pointer. I’d be tempted if I didn’t already have one.
Decent processor, great screen, workstation durability, discreet graphics, good sound, 7200rpm hard drive, and only 350 bucks? Yeah, this is a pretty smokin deal.
Only question I have is about the webcam - site says it doesn’t have one, but the picture says it does. Laptops seldom come without a cam these days… my mp3 player has a camera on it.
Display port converts to HDCP capable HDMI via a cable adapter. Just search “Displayport to HDMI adapter”. They seem to be around $12 on Amazon. I’m pretty sure with the deal you have here, you could spring for the adapter.
I’ve had hdmi ports in my last 3 laptops. In the last 5 years, I’ve used it exactly twice (and both times it was a pain in the ass). This has a great screen. If you want to see it bigger, get a chromecast. They are like 20 bucks.
