Regarding the build quality - The HP Elitebook series will be better than any consumer models (Spectre, Lenovo Slim, Inspiron, etc...). Basically, other than the Macbook Air/Pro, the Elitebook will be better build quality than anything you can find at Costco.
Compared to other business laptops on build quality (feel) - I'd still rank Thinkpads as higher build quality, then Dell Precision, then HP. When you talk about reliability though, I would go Thinkpad, then HP, then Dell.
From a performance perspective, this is a great deal for folks. Unless you are gaming, the 680M integrated graphics card is the best integrated graphics card out there. Period.
If you're wanting a cool running, high performing laptop, this is a good deal, unless you can find an equal deal on the Thinkpad.
No coupon code, you have to create a HP EPP account.
I'm not an employee, but got the EPP deal. See below.

Yes, yes. Intel can be "faster", but I'll take a little slower cpu with that igpu any day.

Likely no because of this....
There are way better options in this price point.
Would this be the better buy? I don't really do any gaming
Update: I now see the 10% offer on Paypal, I needed to scroll further down on PP app. Oh well, order cannot be cancelled after one hour of placing it anyway.
