HP takes a swing at Apple’s MacBook Air with new Voodoo Envy laptop
- swombat 18y agoOk, it's a small laptop. Great. So are many others. Does it have anything else in common with the Macbook Air?
- akd 18y agoDoes the MacBook Air differ from other laptops on any parameter other than size?
- axod 18y agoMultitouch, backlit keyboard,
- ken 18y ago"The Envy features a backlit keyboard with proximity sensors that detects when your fingers are typing. The sensor will then lock the trackpad against accidental brushes. Also, the trackpad features multi-gesture support for scrolling and pinch options." -- http://www.hardwarezone.com.au/reviews/view.php?cid=18&id=2590 http://www.hardwarezone.com.au/reviews/view.php?cid=18&i...

- jrockway 18y agoYeah, the Air would be much nicer without the OS X tax.
- ComputerGuru 18y agoCorrection: It's not small, just thin. Which doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things, actually.
- GrandMasterBirt 18y agoGod forbid you have a baby in the house that climbs up the desk and steps on it. Its going to be a 2 thousand dollar junk :).
- jrockway 18y agoThe Ethernet-in-the-power-brick is a cool idea. It's like a docking station, but smaller. (Of course, a docking station would have video and USB... but you have to start somewhere and this is a damn cool idea.)
