First things first, I really dont care about about screen size or resoultion because i have a 27 inch 1080p screen monitor that I can use at home. Cost also isnt an issue. I am concerned about the hard drive size of the DV6TSE not being enough. And if so would getting an external hard drive fix it without slowing it down? HP is my only option so please dont try to convice that mac or asus are better. Thanks for any help :D|||I suggest getting the HP ENVY 14 Beats Edition rather than the HP DV6TSE for many reasons. First off, the Hp Envy has a much bigger hard drive, which means more memory for storing data for projects you've done, and games. If the Envy one has a 256 GB hard drive, and the other HP laptop only has an 160 GB hard drive, I would definitely get the one with the bigger hard drive. Plus, money isn't a problem with you, so I think it's worth it to pay a little extra money for the Envy because you're getting a laptop that's more reliable, has a bigger hard drive, and overall is a better quality laptop. Plus, I don't think screen size will be a problem with the Envy, because I think almost 15 inches of screen size if more than enough. I definitely would get the Envy. Deep down inside, I think you really want it. Hope I helped.
