Components can easily be upgraded via the easily removable back cover. Rounding off the business features both Ultrabooks are compliant with MIL-SPEC-810G for that extra durability and ruggedness.

Do EliteBooks have page scrolling capabilities with the trackpoint?
Don’t think they come with a trackpoint.
They have a trackpoint, but at least the 14 inch models have only two buttons with it. Not sure about 15.
You’re picture in the article shows it.
No 10 key
No DVD drive
Does not look near as rugged as the 8560p
Not a business notebook in my book.
The advantage of computers and its related technology has
made a lot of adjustment and changes in the business sector but in a
very good way. Apple batteries need a cycle of discharging to 3%
and then fully charging twice a week. In
conclusion, Asus is the brand to go for reliability, and they even put out laptops with
decent specs.
