Quote from jty107 : HP DV4-5113CL, Core 3rd gen i5, 8GB DDR3, Win7, 750GB HD $699 @ Costco. Saw this @ a SoCal Costco...wasn't sure if this is a good deal? How does this compare to a Dell 14z for almost the same price? Need some feedback.

CPU is 2nd gen, not 3rd gen. 2nd gen starts with 2, 3rd gen starts with 3, i.e. i5 3550

According to HP website, this model does have an ivy bridge:

I stand corrected. I was going by the link that was given in the second post. The model # given by the OP does in fact have a 3rd Gen i5.

I also was unable to find that model on the Costco website.

Didn't see it online, but I did see it in my local costco as well. Can't really find any reviews online about it

smoking deal, i bought 20 to resale!

Here are pictures for more info:

Now I am likely to go with
costco's dv4-5113cl [googleusercontent.com] , more info [googleusercontent.com]. Any reviews on this?

I am looking for a 1980X1020 as I connect to a 22" monitor at home. There is no deal of such at costco.

what does the laptop resolution have to do with your monitor?

Until Oct. 7, 2012, the HP dv4-5113cl laptop is on sale at Costco for $599.99. Since it is hard to find this laptop anywhere else, it may be exclusive to Costco. It was a good deal at $699, but it is better now at $100 off.

Do you have any left...I would buy one if you do.
