And a Best Buy salesperson at a store in southern California told me that the Adamo XPS had been discontinued.) ( Update: floor units are on sale at some Best Buy stores for as little as $1,100. The Adamo XPS is an offbeat design that puts the core electronics behind the screen instead of under the keyboard: a truly novel laptop. This Adamo is all about extreme thinness-all 0.4 inches of it-and weight, at about 3 pounds.

$1,899 Dell Adamo XPS (13-inch): Model AX3601GSL includes a 1.4GHz power-efficient U series Intel Core 2 Duo processor, an Intel graphics chip, a 13.4-inch LED display, 4GB of memory, a 128GB solid-state drive, Webcam, and Windows 7 Home Premium OS. HP's own site lists an almost identical configuration for about $1,500. The Envy 13 packs faster ATI graphics (compared to the aging 9400M Nvidia graphics in the Air), and comes with two batteries. It's not MacBook Air thin but close at 0.8 inches and has a brushed aluminum exterior. This 13-inch Envy is HP's attempt at a MacBook Air. $1,799 HP Envy (13-inch): Model ENVY 13-1030NR includes a 1.86GHz Intel SL9400 Core 2 Duo processor, ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4330 graphics, 13.1-inch LED display (1366 x 768), 250GB hard disk drive, external DL DVD-RW/CD-RW drive, two batteries (4-cell and 6-cell), webcam, and Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Needless to say, this is a solid aluminum design and, like the Sony model above, features switchable Nvidia-Intel graphics, toggling between performance and power efficiency, respectively. $1,799 Apple MacBook Pro (15-inch): Model MC371LL/A includes a 2.4GHz Core i5 Processor, Nvidia GeForce GT 330M chip switchable with Intel HD graphics, a 15.4-inch display, 4GB of memory, a 320GB hard disk drive, slot-loading DVD-RW/CD-RW drive, Webcam, and Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. You won't find many 3-pound-class laptops with a Turbo Boost-enabled Core i5, Nvidia graphics, and built-in optical drive.
This Sony crams a lot of horsepower into a 3-pound design, thus the price. $1,799 Sony Vaio (13-inch): Model VPCZ12LGX includes a 2.26GHz Core i5 processor, Nvidia GeForce GT 330M graphics chip switchable with Intel HD graphics, a 13.1-inch LED display, 4GB of memory, a 128GB solid-state drive, DVD-RW/CD-RW drive, Webcam, and Windows 7 Home Premium Edition 64-bit OS. Here's a quick look at what you get when you shell out that much money for a laptop: Half of those 12 MacBooks are in the highest price category.Īltogether, about a dozen elite Windows and Apple models cost more than $1,699, a cutoff that I'm using. Out of roughly 200 models-Windows and Apple-listed on Best Buy's site, there are 12 MacBooks-used generically here to refer to the MacBook and aluminum-clad MacBook Pro and MacBook Air. The fact that Apple dominates the upper-price tier at Best Buy is no great surprise, but the MacBook pricing takes on a new meaning when you look at the numbers.
The 15-inch MacBook Pro: pricey but with a solid design. Apple MacBooks, more than any other single brand, populate the rankings of the priciest laptops at Best Buy, affirming Apple's reputation as a purveyor of elite computers.
