HP EliteBook Mobile Workstation Design video features Stacy Wolff, Director of Notebook Product Design. He speaks to the reliability, performance and design of the 2011 series of mobile workstations.
it is designed for working people. not for the faint of hearts. if you need something light just to show off to others at starbuck, buy a MBA and save $2000. But if you need a work horse to make money, there is no compromise here. if you are cheap, don't even think about a mobile station, buy a cheap desktop and save $3k. if you are college students, don't waste money on computer except an ipad.
@JBCalander Don't waste your money. For Catia/autodesk/rhino, you need to be running a dedicated 2-gig graphics card, i7 4-core + 8 threads (more if you want to be running CS5 along side!), and 16-gigs of ram... and liquid cooling. Get a work station at home, and an ipad to watch movies on an airplane. Don't waste your money trying to build a CAD laptop. They burn out ever six months.

The design isn't exciting at all, yet this is such a big feature. Whatever. How about a system that could actually last more than 3 years?
