Laptop Tests: HP Envy 15 and Asus G60J

Today, our ongoing Product Survey of laptops gains two new high-end models, each with a different accent: one has a luxury finish, while the other is aimed at gamers.  But what they have in common is an excellent finish and Intel's new Core i7 processor.

Anybody who's used to Apple's laptops will notice straight away that the HP Envy 15 bears more than a passing resemblance to the 15'' version of the MacBook Pro--but can HP match the performance as well as the style? 

For its part, Asus has updated its 'Republic of Gamers' line with the Asus G60J, opting for the same heavyweight Intel Core i7 processor to add even more power to these laptops designed with the biggest games in mind.
