WHO says business notebook PCs can’t look sleek and cool?
Computer maker HP has unveiled a new line of notebook PCs this week, designed primarily for telecommuting business users.
HP unveiled at least three 2000 series notebooks that are ultra-light, weighing less than two kilograms.
“There’s a lot of demand for mobility. But why can’t we make these notebooks stylish and personal,” said Christian Reyes, market development manager under the Personal Systems Group of HP Philippines, during the launch of the notebooks amid a display of new Volvo cars.
HP Philippines officials said the launch of the new notebooks was done in a Volvo showroom to project the theme of mobility and style, which is consistent with their new line of notebooks.
With notebook sales growing at about 20 percent in the Philippines, Reyes said its new line of smaller and lighter notebooks are not lightweights.
They also come with powerful features, such as hard drive guard that protects the notebook’s hard disk from damage in case it falls.
HP Philippines unveiled at least three models: the HP 2710p, 2510, and the 2210. The 2710p also doubles as a tablet PC.
The new notebooks all run on Windows Vista.
