EliteBook
The EliteBook 8470p Core i7-3520M Edition
Posted by: Nathan Simon
I just got my hands on the EliteBook 8470p and I must say I am very happy with the form factor, 14”, and design. Everything from the brushed aluminum casing to the bright 1600×900 LED display panel. I am also using an SSD Drive (OCZ Vertex 3 120GB) which makes this laptop absolutely fly. The only thing I haven’t gotten used to is the Display Port, I have always liked straight HDMI. If you haven’t taken a look at the 84xx series of laptops, I would suggest you do so.
Here are the specifications of my model.
