Series: HP aims to offer the world's thinnest and lightest business-class notebooks in the HP EliteBook Folio 1040 series. It features a durable body from aluminum and its 180 degrees hinge allows it to lay completely flat. According to HP, it passed MIL-STD 810G testing. The latest Core i processors, up to 16 GB of RAM and an SSD make for decent performance.
The matte 14-inch display features FHD resolution and the keyboard is spill-resistant. A long battery life increases mobile productivity. The latest Windows Pro version is pre-installed, but Windows 7 Professional 64-bit is available through downgrade rights. You might find the right notebook in this series if you are looking for a robust, portable business laptop.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
4600U:
A Haswell-based ULV dual-core processor clocked at 2.1 GHz with Turbo Boost support up to 3.3 GHz. Offers an integrated HD Graphics 4400 and a dual-channel DDR3 memory controller.
