hp envy 14 ultrabook $799 at costco

1366x768 is a crap display, and almost 5 pounds isn't an ultrabook.

I think these are the correct specs. [hp.com]

I wish it was a HP Envy Spectre w/ 14.0-inch diagonal Radiance HD+ Infinity LED-backlit Display (1600 x 900) for $800.

I think someone needs to tell HP what an "Ultrabook" is...

I got one of these from the HP deal for $450 a month ago. Well worth it.

The Costco store in Gaithersburg, MD has it for $729 after a $150 (instead of $100) discount. It's a good computer: fast boot up and shut down, very fast wake up from sleeping mode.

This is within spec.

Intel marketing jargon for "thin and light" notebooks now

We got this at our local Costco and it was only $729, $150 off with an instant rebate. Great replacement for an aging Core 2 Duo that just couldn't keep up. Love the extra 2-year warranty from Costco.

Boots up in less than 30 seconds, which feels almost instant. This is likely due to the hybrid drive with 32gb SSD. Fast, light, and 5 hour batter life (according to battery bar) with web, email and word processing going. Also, I can't give up backlit keyboards once I started using one on my Envy 14, so this one had to have it as well. Very impressed with HP's higher-end laptops lately. Loving it so far!

OP fix your title, this is the envy 4, not envy 14

I do not understand why it has integrated graphics at this price range.
