If Dell’s latest 17-inch powerhouse is just too beastly to your next work trip, HP has begun selling its trio of new EliteBook mobile workstations , with screen sizes as small as 14 inches. When it comes to both the 14-inch 8460w and the 15.6-inch 8560w, you get discrete graphics standard and may choose a $1,000 Core i7-2820QM processor, among less pricey options. (With the 15-inch iteration, you may also choose a 1 billion-color DreamColor display.) Admittedly, you will need to step as much as the 17-inch 8760w if you need a Core i7-2920XM CPU, AMD FirePro or NVIDIA Quadro graphics with as much as 4GB of memory, and as much as three hard drives with RAID 5 support. As promised, they are going for $1,299, $1,239, and $1,899, respectively — in the event that your corporate card’s just begging for its next hit.
