The EliteBook range is well named, as it's designed to offer as much power as physically possible while still being portable.
The 8730w is a fully fledged mobile workstation, aimed at designers, creatives and other power users. The 1,920 x 1,200 display is from HP's Dreamcolour range, and the Nvidia Quadro FX graphics with 512MB of DDR3 memory is fully ISV certified.
